The Outdoor Adventure Handbook Book

This well organized, informative book will help readers (young and old) familiarize themselves with the basics of camping. One of the books major strengths is using photographs to illustrate everything from packing lists to step by step instructions. An exemplary section is “how to pack your gear” —- one is left feeling that they could do a side by side comparison of their stuff in front of them and the instructions within the book & be assured they’ve got it “right.”

The “cooking” and “making” section may be interesting to readers who don’t want to camp. Homemade wind gauges, water collection points, and even a camp stool made from sticks a plastic bag give readers ideas for things to do outdoors.
