Rosie doesn't want to go on the school camp holiday. She'd rather stay at home with Mum instead. Rosie's postcards home list all the things she doesn't like- one of the teachers seems quite fierce; the food is horrible and she thinks she's getting a cold. . . And then the sun comes, camping turns out to be fab - and Rosie's has such a good holiday she just wishes the rest of her family could have as much fun as her.
