This is a totally delightful book sure to entice your little ones. And they might even learn something – I sure did.

Popcorn and Jellybean decide to go on a two-day adventure. They make a list and carefully pack for the two days. Off they go to explore. Things go well the first day. They even avoid getting sprayed by a family of skunks. They set up their tent and go to sleep. But the next morning their food has been stolen by an opossum. What do they do? And they get lost. What do they do? show more They encounter a bear and bees, oh my! What to do? Fortunately these friends have paid attention when told to pay attention to the animals. The natural behavior of animals lead the friends to food, help them find shelter, and find their way home.

The illustrations throughout the book are lovely. In my opinion, this is a book best read over a few days to small children.

Join in this fun "survival" adventure directed at a younger elementary age audience.
Popcorn and Jellybean are feeling bored so decide to go for a two day nature adventure. They get prepared with camping equipment, food, water, paper and pencil placed inside their backpacks. Although they feel they have everything, events do not go as planned.

This is a very cute tale with great survival skill ideas but not great for the age group the story would interest.

The illustrations are simple, colorful show more and very good.

^Spoiler: The first questions the children will ask is, "Why did nobody come looking for them?"
I offer a Three and a Half Stars rating for this book.
