A Camping Spree With Mr. Magee by Chris Van Dusen 2003
Mr. Magee and his dog Dee are ecstatic about hitting the road and encountering the adventures that await them in the mountains. Little do they know that a famished bear and a gawking raccoon will visit their campsite. The chain of events that take place will have them heading home in a dash.
“And on the way home Magee said to Dee, “That trip wasn’t quite like I thought it would be.” So when they got home, with the sky turning red, they decided to camp in the backyard instead.”
The artwork by Van Dusen deftly showcases the joys of camping, whether in the wilderness or at home. The images of the Maine landscape are crisp, and endearing.
Appropriate for ages 4-8

Hi Jenni,
Thank you so much! I really appreciate the exposure and the kind words. Look for a new MAGEE book in about a year from now!
Best, Chris
