Description

Bug Blonsky is back, making mischief at camp, tracking Bigfoot, and entertaining readers with another madcap list: his unofficial Swamp Scout Survival guide.

In an uproarious follow-up to Bug Blonsky and His Very Long List of Dont's, Bug takes early chapter book readers along on a weekend Swamp Scout trip. At Camp Win-Kee-Noo, you can earn merit patches for paying attention and following directions, but not for any of the things Bug excels atstuff like armpit farting and being wiggly. As a True Bigfoot Believer, the only patch Bugs wants on his Swamp Scout vest is the Curious Creature patch for spotting an odd or uncommon animal. Know-it-all Abner insists that if Bigfoot were real, he would be listed in the Terrible Things to Avoid section of their official Swamp Scout survival guide. Leave it to Bug to write his own guide, jam-packed with tips and tricks for making the most (mischief) out of camp . . . plus a few startling discoveries. Funny, irreverent, fast-paced, and packed with comic illustrations, Bugs second outing will keep young readers in stiches (and possibly out of poison ivy).

Reviews

While hes on a camping trip, Bug makes a list of Terrible Things To Avoid, which includes several of the other scouts along with rubbery hot dogs, rabbit poop, and the outhouse. Fans of bathroom humor will be very fond of this novel. . .Anyone who loved the first Bug Blonsky book, which was crammed with frogs and armpit farts, will find the same sort of jokes here, but they may also love the moments of sweetness.
