Gr 4–7—A reality TV crew is coming to the Wilder Family Campground a week prior to the opening of camping season. Cooper Wilder helps but becomes distracted, resulting in his father getting injured. The neighbors come out and help them get the grounds ready for their close-up. Amid all of this, a litter of fox kits are slowly being stolen from the Wilder Family Campground. Cooper and his friends Packrat and Roy take it upon themselves to seek out the fox thieves. The dialogue among the youthful cast of characters is realistic and will be relatable to many readers. Full-page and spot illustrations are sprinkled throughout the text. Those new to the Wilders will be able to pick up the story with no problem.
