Description
"Once there were five giants... It was a very hot summer at Fe-Fi-Fo-Farm and the perfect time for Grizzle, Dazzle, Grab, Grub, and Dab to go on a camping vacation. They packed up their tent and knapsacks, climbed into their van, and headed for a cool lake. But a swingy hammock, flopping fish, and a shaggy bear turn their vacation from peace and quiet into dread and disaster!"--Tags
