Not really necessary if you’ve seen the Netflix series, but it is a fun way to introduce your little ones to the idea of camping and what to expect.

For the first time ever, Llama Llama is going camping with his friends Nelly Gnu, Luna, Gilroy, and Euclid. (Fabulous names for these friends, don't you think, Goodreaders?)

Through their dialog, the friends introduce readers to what camping IS.

I love how the dialog expresses the innocence of these children as they first experience camping.

"Wow," says Llama, looking around. "These trees are so tall!"

Will the kids be able to follow the rule for this trip and not use their "gadgets" while camping out?

This FIVE STAR story explores what's perennial about having fun with friends... with the very contemporary question about how to survive an overnight trip... without clinging to one's phone and other mechanical toys.

My son loves the Llama Llama books and they are so easy that it helps him learn to read and enjoy reading. I'm so proud of my next generation of book worm. He comes from a long line of them and we continue to be enthusiasts for books to keep living.

For a slightly older kid than llama llama red pajama. As an avid camper, I was excited to read it to my son. The story is a little dull, but the underlying message is to go and enjoy the great outdoors without all the distractions of modern life.
