Carl and Madeleine are supposed to be napping while Mom and Dad get the
summer cabin ready for company, but this lovable canine and his charge
have better things to do. They escape from the hammock to do some
canoeing, pick blackberries, and enjoy a picnic. Carl even plays a
little baseball! That night, Mom and Dad wonder why the two are so
tired - little do they know that Carl and Madeleine have been busy
exploring all that a summer vacation on the lake has to offer.
Told mainly through Alexandra Day's gorgeous oil paintings, this
summertime romp will make readers long to bring Carl along on their own
vacations!
