"If you're just looking for some inspiring camping tips, this is the book for you. But if you're looking for new authors to love, deep lessons about disappointment and hope, and a warm emotional connection to a family you never met (and possibly your own), this is also the book for you. And me." — Lenore Skenazy, president, Let Grow and founder of Free-Range Kids
