A mystery keyword searcher is looking for:

…books for kids with an orange cover and a hotdog on front of book by a campfire.

I think we’re looking at a series here. David Lubar has a great series for upper elementary kids and young adults, and all the books have hot dogs on the cover (the series, naturally, is called the Weenies Series). One of the books has an orange cover(Beware the Ninja Weenies: And Other Warped and Creepy Tales), and another has a hot dog hanging over a campfire on the cover (The Curse of the Campfire Weenies: And Other Warped and Creepy Tales). There are several other volumes in the series, including:

In the Land of the Lawn Weenies
Invasion of the Road Weenies
The Curse of the Campfire Weenies
The Battle of the Red Hot Pepper Weenies
Attack of the Vampire Weenies
Beware the Ninja Weenies

I haven’t read them personally, but they’ve been described as “perfect for fans of The Twilight Zone.” So I probably wouldn’t give them to the faint of heart. But if you or a kid you know are looking for something both creepy and funny, the Weenies Series will probably fit the bill perfectly.
