A whimsical love letter to vintage camper vans that spreads positivity and kindness and celebrates individuality.

Capturing the quirky designs and adventurous spirit of vintage camper vans, affectionately known as “eggs on wheels,” this cheerful picture book spreads love and affirmations on every page. Each illustration shows a different model of vintage camper van receiving a unique compliment from a friendly bird. This simple concept teaches young children to celebrate what makes each person special and loveable and to share love and positivity to their friends and family wherever they go. A Little Camper Love is the perfect book to bring along on family camping trips—whether you are travelling in a vintage camper or wish you were!—and helps foster self-confidence and consideration towards others.

Rayna Meakin is an illustrator and lover of vintage things, including vintage fibre-glass campers. She expresses herself through many artforms, including painting, pottery,and floral design. She is the illustrator of Planted: Stories from Manitoba’s Natural World, by Kaitlin Vitt. Her 1977 Surfside inspired her to complete the series of watercolour illustrations of vintage campers at the kitchen table, surrounded by her children.
