Campfire Crisis by Blake Hoena is a new take on the traditional choose your own path/adventure type stories. In this new version, A Choice Chapter Book, readers are given choices but the outcomes are a bit toned down for those younger readers who may not be ready to “die” during their reading time. It made for a fun way of reading. Instead of saying you’ve died as a result of your actions you are given a gentle nudge in the right direction instead and continue on to the next page.

Should you follow a certain path, help injured friends, put out a fire and a number of other similar scenarios all come up during Campfire Crisis by Blake Hoena. In a story filled with adventure and danger this new “Choice Chapter Book” provides a way for even younger readers to enjoy the “danger” of a choose your own path book, but without the potentially detrimental effects. Not only was this a fun read aloud, it was also educational. If you’re a camping enthusiast or simply love the outdoors the little reader in your life and you will love and learn from reading Campfire Crisis by Blake Hoena.”
