Summer Camp Critter Jitters is a clever book written by Jory John and perfectly illustrated by Liz Climo. It's time for summer camp, and all the young campers (a sloth, a bear, a duck, a skunk, a rabbit, a parrot, a kangaroo, a mole, a mouse, and a snake) each have their own concerns about what to expect and what may be expected of them at camp. (For example- Do they tell ghost stories? Skunk 'smells things up' when they're feeling scared. What if Parrot can't stop talking while everyone is trying to listen to the camp counselor? Kangaroo would rather sleep at home than have to use a sleeping bag.) After they arrive, the campers learn that with teamwork and friends, they can face anything- even the jitters! It was nice to see that all of the characters had something they were worried about, showing young readers that everyone feels a bit insecure about something! In addition, the adorable illustrations by Liz Climo inspired me to get out my markers and learn to draw this cast of characters. -- Library Staff Review (Diana F.)
