When Mum, Tom, Tilly, Lily and Eddie decide to go on holiday, a camping trip sounds like the ideal break. After setting up camp, there are lots of adventures ahead for Eddie and his family cooking over a camp-fire, making the camp shipshape and exploring the nearby beach. In town, Eddie meets a new friend Max and his dog Bouncer. But when Bouncer goes missing in the middle of a storm, Eddie will need all his survival skills to find the dog and his way back to camp!
