Everyone knows that one of the best things about camping is making s’mores! Make More S’mores celebrates this quintessential summertime treat, with a cast of friendly forest characters who struggle – sometimes successfully – to be patient and helpful. A raccoon sits down to make s’mores for himself, but the lure of the gooey treats attracts more and more animals, each of whom wants to eat. Yet the raccoon is the picture of patience, and soon the others follow his example and pitch in to make sure there’s enough for everyone.
