Raj and his dad are back! And they know they're going to have the best vacation ever.

Raj and his dad are going camping. They've packed everything they need, and Raj knows they are going to have an amazing time. Once they get there, however, they find they have to contend with wind, rain, and a family of very noisy bears . . . In this sequel to Raj and the Best Day Ever!, Sebastien Braun continues his warm, observant exploration of the relationship between a little tiger and his dad.
Young tiger Raj and his father are taking a vacation, a trip that takes days of planning and luggage packed tightly into the car. Vibrant color and digital cartoon art move the action forward, following the pair as they prepare... This title takes readers through the ups and downs of a first camping trip, made even better when everyone works together.
—School Library Journal

Raj the tiger cub and Dad are going camping...But when the tigers finally reach the campsite, things don’t go quite as expected...Braun balances both child-friendly and adult-friendly humor, making it a pleasure for adults and children to read together. The illustrations are teeming with movement, life, and detail, and they are sure to delight children who are close observers...A sweet and satisfying book about a vacation that goes wrong before it goes right.
