《学校图书馆杂志》(School Library Journal)书评
Gr 5 Up-Originally published in Canada as The Kids Cottage Book, this compendium of activities offers ideas galore for young vacationers. Six broad sections-Shoreside, Landside, After Dark, Hiking and Camping, Rainy Days, and Cottage Crafts-cover a wide range of nature investigations, water sports, arts and crafts, recipes, and safety information that varies greatly in both difficulty and age appropriateness. From crayfish trap to canoe strokes, raising monarch butterflies to building a tree fort, paper-folding to whittling, there is something for everyone here. The appealing format features lots of pencil illustrations and diagrams. Most topics fill one or two pages, with large green headings and green-tinted boxes containing lists of ingredients, ecology suggestions, or nature facts. The array of crafts, activities, and outdoor skills will make the book a useful tool for camp counselors and scout leaders. Children who delight in quiet activities will find a wealth of them as well. In fact, the book's only flaw is its inconsistency in advising adult help. Many of the materials' lists include ``an adult helper,'' although often the directions fail to mention what kind of supervision is needed and when. A disclaimer on the verso of the title page absolves the author and illustrator from liability for damages resulting from ``conducting the activities without proper supervision, or from ignoring the cautions contained in the text.'' Thus, the age designation.-Susan Scheps, Shaker Heights Public Library, OH (c) Copyright 2010. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc. No redistribution permitted.

Beach games, water safety, hiking and camping, wild-animal watching, snacks, and crafts are among the many outdoor and indoor activities covered in the thick volume. Most topics are introduced in two-page entries, with detailed directions and plentiful, homely drawings. The practical volume will interest children, parents, and teachers. Ind.

Kirkus评论
Drawing on memories of a childhood when kids summered at the shore or in the woods, the authors describe crafts, games, nature studies, and camping activities in a book published in Canada as The Kids Cottage Book (1993). While making an ant farm or building a bird feeder are doable anywhere, many other activities here are less possible for urban children, few of whom have access to 32-foot pine trees to chop down for flag poles or six sealed barrels to use in a raft. Some warnings, too, seem insufficient (""If you see a rattlesnake or other poisonous snake, stay away from it""). Allison's The Sierra Club Summer Book (1977) will be more useful in the city; but this is a treasure trove for country kids, as well as a fine bit of nostalgia for other children and their parents to share. Soft pencil diagrams and drawings show a mix of children, including the physically challenged. Index. Copyright ©Kirkus Reviews, used with permission.
《书目》(Booklist)书评
Gr. 4-7. The authors, who assume that readers will spend time during the summer at a lake, a river, a beach, or the woods, devote the first section of this book to activities for various outdoor sites. Some of the activities are translatable to urban venues; most are not. Most of the rainy-day craft projects will work anywhere, though a few call for materials not readily available (a dead whole fish with scales, for example). The authors note when adult help is needed, but often not prominently. The illustrations feature a lively multicultural cast, and directions are clearly visualized, especially those for whittling, knotting, weaving, and paper craft projects. Young outdoor enthusiasts may be attracted to this, but the book will be most valuable to an adult planning day-camping activities. ~--Mary Harris Veeder
