Critics Review
A must for every child’s home library. * Creative Kids Tales *
The illustrations by Cat Chapman are charming and will keep young ones (and those reading the book to them) amused for ages, hunting out all the things needed for a successful camping trip. * Booksellers NZ *
Reviewed * Radio NZ *
The quintessential summer camping holiday is shown in all its quirky, hilarious moments in this unmistakably Kiwi picture book. * Bookrapt *
Everyone who has ever been camping will relate to this amusing and informative picture book that shows a family on holiday. * Read Plus *
The strength of the book for me lies in Cat Chapman’s wonderful watercolour and ink illustrations which are realistic and engaging, and capture beautifully the humour involved in this traditional Kiwi activity. * Otago Daily Times *
When We Go Camping bounces with the excitement, trials and tribulations of outdoor living. * Savvy magazine *
When We Go Camping is definitely worth checking out if you’re near a library or bookstore. I think it’s a kiwi-kid-bookshelf-must-have and would make the perfect Christmas gift for little ones.. * The Golden Adventures of a Very Dark Horse *
