LETTERS HOME FROM SCOUT & GUIDE CAMP
Three books. One hilarious collection. Just £5.99
Three books. Hundreds of laughs. And some very worrying letters home!
What really happens when young people go away to Scout or Guide camp?
Apparently, quite a lot.
They may be away from their parents, but they certainly haven't forgotten them. And when they sit down to write a letter home, they don't always stop to consider whether what they're writing is sensible, appropriate—or even remotely reassuring.
The result is a wonderfully entertaining collection of letters that reveal the bizarre, hilarious and sometimes slightly alarming reality of life on camp.

"Laugh out loud! These should not be read by parents of a nervous disposition!" Amazon review
ABOUT "LETTERS HOME FROM SCOUT & GUIDE CAMP."
The one that started it all.
Featuring extracts from 100 of the funniest letters home, this is a collection of innocent, uncensored and often completely unexpected accounts of camp life.
From disasters in tents to strange things happening in the middle of the night, the young writers simply tell their parents what has happened—often with absolutely no idea how their words might be interpreted by an adult.

"Brilliant! So funny and as a parent and leader you can relate so well to the scenarios." Amazon review
ABOUT "MORE LETTERS HOME FROM SCOUT & GUIDE CAMP."
They're back—and they've got even more to say.
The second collection includes longer and equally entertaining letters, with young people describing their adventures, mishaps and discoveries on camp.
There are international camps, campfires, friendships, food, homesickness, unexpected adventures and the sort of incidents that somehow become much funnier when described in a letter home.
"Brilliant! So funny and as a parent and leader you can relate so well to the scenarios."
EVEN MORE LETTERS HOME FROM SCOUT & GUIDE CAMP
"In stitches...just so funny, all scout/ guide leaders should read this." Amazon review
ABOUT "EVEN MORE LETTERS HOME FROM SCOUT & GUIDE CAMP."
And just when you thought it was safe to open the post...
The third collection goes even further, with more wonderfully naïve, hilarious and occasionally bewildering letters from young people on camp.
Some are innocent. Some are alarming. Some make you wonder exactly what was going on inside the writer's head.
But all of them demonstrate one important fact:
Young people should perhaps think twice before writing home!
"In stitches... just so funny, all Scout/Guide leaders should read this."
A PERFECT READ FOR...
Scout and Guide leaders • Parents • Former Scouts and Guides • Anyone who has ever been on camp • Anyone who enjoys seeing the world through the wonderfully uncomplicated eyes of young people
These aren't stories written by professional comedians. They're funny because the writers are simply telling it like it is.
The spelling may occasionally be questionable. The grammar may sometimes be creative. The logic can be extraordinary.
But the stories are priceless.
