This young reader board book is a story of patience and s'mores. On a camping trip with his dad, a young doggy learns that there is work to be done before s'mores can be enjoyed. They must find a campsite, set up the tent, and cook dinner before they can enjoy the delicious chocolate-marshmallow-graham cracker treat. This book helps model a lesson children can learn from a young age, to work before play. It helps readers build patience and understand the importance of a good work ethic while at the same time entertaining them. The colorful illustrations are a good complement to the simplicity of the delightful tale and add to the importance of teaching a young child to communicate needs and wants graciously. The result is a heartfelt story that touches not only the mind but the heart as well. Part of the “Chicken Soup for the Soul: Babies” series.
