Description:
Henry is so excited for his first ever week at sleepaway camp! He can't wait to make so many new friends, play so many games, and do so many crafts. It's going to be the best week ever!
And at first, it is! Henry makes friends, his team wins capture the flag, and he makes awesome crafts. He's so busy he even forgets to write his family a letter the first night! But when he starts planning for the big end-of-camp talent show, he gets nervous. Will his performance be right? What if he messes it up? If only he could talk to Dad and Daddy, and they could help him practice. If only he could laugh with his little sister--that would make him feel better. Suddenly, all Henry can think about is how much he misses his family. But he isn't the only one who feels this way. Turns out his friends have all felt homesick too--even their counselor has! Together they find ways for Henry to feel close to his family and still have the best week ever at camp.
