"This was the first McManus book I read, and have so many fun memories of sharing the stories at campouts with my friend Phylis that it will always be my favorite. Very funny stories that make the bed shake if you are reading in bed...laughing."
"Patrick McManus is one of my absolute fave authors of all times. Normally I'm not into "outdoorsy" stuff, like fishing, hunting, and camping, but these stories are great! XD Each book is a compilation of humorous stories about the great outdoors. Some of the stories are from McManus's childhood, while some are from the present. McManus gets lost in, grouches at, runs away from, and lectures about, all things outdoorsman-like. I can't get enough of these lol books!!"
"My social studies teacher in junior high read this to us...he had his own teaching methods. I remember it being really funny. I'll have to find a copy and re-read."
