What happens

The Ingalls family's camping trip gets crowded when the Olesons tag along. Mrs. Oleson complains about everything, and Nellie is up to her usual tricks.

When Nellie lands in trouble in the river and lies about what happened, the truth comes out, and it reveals something about Harriet's own childhood behavior. Lots of laughs and a little bit of Oleson family insight.
