create lifelong readers by turning picture books into interactive, fun, and active adventures in learning. Campers experience the most
creative and fun children’s stories, from the classics to popular present-day reads, to Derick’s own works. We combine interactive read-
aloud, where we read with, not to, the campers, with spelling exercises, vocabulary words, creative projects, mini-plays, nature walk-n-
reads, and high-energy games, all based on the storylines and characters we read about. Campers should bring a drink and healthy
snack, and wear sneakers.
