Review Detail

Spike the bear has a whole amazing trip planned for him and his friend, Roscoe the rabbit. But oh dear, from the very beginning, things don't go as planned, and Spike is ready to call it a disaster. However, Roscoe's relentless optimism helps him see the bright side and the friends make many happy memories together.

It's colorful and bright and full of spring time camping adventures. Feeling lost? Maybe the map was upside down. Hard to have hot chocolate when the fire won't start, but chocolate milk is just as tasty; and the hammock would have been fun, but so is flopping in a nice pile of leaves! Spike and Roscoe are a great duo, and the story is mainly full of their dialogue as they bounce ideas off each other, demonstrating how friends can have different personalities and get along in spite of, or because of, those differences.

Recommend for lovers of grumpy bears, happy rabbits, friendship stories, and spending a night in the great outdoors.
