Grade 1-3-- The fifth entry in this series of beginning readers about two best friends. This time they are heading off to Camp Wackatootchee for two solid weeks. Rex seems excited and is busy getting in shape; meanwhile, Pinky is trying to hide his fear of camp. He writes to the newspaper advice columnist for help. The answer to his letter brings him unconditional support from his parents; the next day he sees the situation from a new perspective when Rex tells him just how scared she would be if he weren't going with her. Readers are sure to identify with the characters as they deal with their fears in different ways, and the story is low-key and reassuring. Sweet's full-color, realistic watercolors appear on every spread, providing newly independent readers with visual breaks throughout the seven chapters. --Gale W. Sherman, Pocatello Public Library, ID
