About the Author
James Howe is the author of more than ninety books for young readers, including the modern classic Bunnicula and its highly popular sequels. In 2001, Howe published The Misfits, the story of four outcast seventh-graders who try to end name-calling in their school. The Misfits is now widely read and studied in middle schools throughout the country, and was the inspiration for the national movement known as No Name-Calling Week (NoNameCallingWeek.org), an event observed by thousands of middle and elementary schools annually. There are three companion novels to The Misfits: Totally Joe (2005), Addie on the Inside (2011), and Also Known as Elvis (2014). Howe’s many other books for children from preschool through teens frequently deal with the acceptance of difference and being true to oneself. Visit him online at JamesHowe.com.
From School Library Journal
Grade 1-3-- The fifth entry in this series of beginning readers about two best friends. This time they are heading off to Camp Wackatootchee for two solid weeks. Rex seems excited and is busy getting in shape; meanwhile, Pinky is trying to hide his fear of camp. He writes to the newspaper advice columnist for help. The answer to his letter brings him unconditional support from his parents; the next day he sees the situation from a new perspective when Rex tells him just how scared she would be if he weren't going with her. Readers are sure to identify with the characters as they deal with their fears in different ways, and the story is low-key and reassuring. Sweet's full-color, realistic watercolors appear on every spread, providing newly independent readers with visual breaks throughout the seven chapters. --Gale W. Sherman, Pocatello Public Library, ID
