It's campout time for the Squeak Scouts! The ten little mice can't wait to explore the great outdoors. But when Albert gets sidetracked with his pet snail, Flash, the Squeak Scouts must shout, "Where's Albert?" |
“"I'll give you tent pegs so your tents don't blow away," she said. "Five pegs for every tent." Agnes counted by fives as she handed out the pegs. "5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45 ..." She held up the last five pegs. "Where is Albert now?"”
