A thoughtful, multigenerational tale of Sunday fishing trips with Dad, as seen through the eys of the author as a young boy. 30 full-color photos by Will Shively; 6x6 inches, 32 pgs.


'In an exceptionally lyrical story, Rosen recaptures all the Sundays he spent with his father at favorite fishing holes as he watches his father--now a grandfather--take his grandson to those same places. He hears his father's same advice, watches him teach the same lessons: how to bait, how to cast, and how to be patient.

In the voice of a young boy, Fishing with Dad invokes all the details and drama of the fishing experience: hiking to the perfect fishing spot, sorting the lures and untangling lines, skipping flat stones, and, of course, the excitement of the bobber zipping across the water, netting a fish, watching it swim in the holding bucket, and letting it go. The story also reveals the father's fishing secret: somehow a fish was always waiting to bite when the boy returned from his creekside wanderings.

A story of wonder and discovery for young anglers, a gift of nostalgia and love for grown-up experts, Fishing with Dad is a book for everyone whose memories include some unhurried time at the water's edge, tossing a hook and a bit of hope into the current.
WHAT THE EXPERTS ARE SAYING:
"A lavish & beautiful book." --The New Yorker
