This is a super cute and humorous little picture book from the point of view of a Bigfoot. There is a lot of helpful information about campers, such as how to identify them and deal with them -- and don't let them take your picture!
Thanks to NetGalley for letting me read this

Cute field guide book. I love comparing the words with the illustrations. It is entertaining and fun. Loved the format.

A clever way of subverting official advice about the enemy, this has a Bigfoot read a guidebook to the horrors that are campers – the noisome, smelly but hairless human children, with their cameras and their camping songs and their s'mores… The book it reads says they are dreaded things that are not friendly, and must never be interacted with – but when this one is forced to not only do that but help a lost girl guide, he finds the advice to be complete cockamamie. The fact this is overlaid with the advice that is to be ignored shows this as a simple inversion, and the reader sees two characters accept differences while the book insists the friendship will never lead to anything good. Well-crafted, very simple – and yet very clever with it, this is a strong four stars.

netgalley ARC - I liked how this was written from a bigfoot perspective and how the interactions between bigfoot and camper was mostly wordless. Sweet.

This story is absolutely adorable! Told from the unique perspective of Bigfoot, it humorously captures the misunderstood ‘dangers’ of young campers—who are really just little scouts exploring the great outdoors. The illustrations are charming and perfectly complement the playful tone of the story. I’d highly recommend this book as a gift for the little campers or scouts in your life. It’s the perfect read for sharing stories around the campfire!
I received an advanced copy with no obligation to review. All thoughts are my own and completely unbiased.

Thank you for the ARC. This was such a cute story with cute illustrations. My son is too young to understand the story yet but it was very cute and oh so accurate about campers.

This is such a cute and happy read! My boys would love this book about camping and big foot. It his heartwarming while also being humorous. There are also a few hints at the beginning about how to be respectful to our forests and camp grounds. Very cute illustrations as well. Thank you for the opportunity to read and review an ARC edition of this book.

This was everything I was hoping it would be from the cover & title!!!! What a rarity in kids books!
For parent-readers, this reminds me SO MUCH of [book:Fox 8|17620753] and [book:Open Throat|62039259]. I love it. (For parents who have no idea what I'm talking about, there's a big people equiv of this book if you enjoy it while reading with your littles!)
I highly highly recommend this to any and every parent unless you're not okay with the word fart. My gma used to cry if we didn't say "bubble", idk if that's finally changed or what hahaha but just in case, this dooessss say the word fart.
I will be sprinting to get this for my little guy's bookshelf (if/when shipping doesn't cost an arm and a leg to/from CAN).
(Thank you bunches to Jami Gigot, Kids Can Press and NetGalley for the DRC in exchange for my honest review!)
