What's the book about?

The children are excited when their dads decide to cook tasty food outside, but getting the fire started is much trickier than they thought. Smoke, burnt sausages, and sudden rain turn the meal into a very funny muddle. In the end, everyone finds a warm, dry place to eat together and still has a great time.
