A Camping Spree with Mr. Magee

Written and Illustrated by Chris Van Dusen

Chris Van Dusen books are always a delight, combining playful rhyming text with bright, comical artwork that's alive with color and detail.

In their new adventure, Mr. Magee and his dog, Dee, are enjoying a peaceful camping trip when along comes a lumbering, marshmallow-loving bear and the excitement begins. The next thing the two campers know, they are plunging down a mountain, racing down a river, and teetering on the edge of a waterfall! How will Mr. Magee and Dee find their way out of this slippery situation?
