Children's Literature
This is a great little book for kids who want to try their hands at fishing. It carefully addresses all the basics of equipment, places to go, types of fish and includes great descriptions of what these fish eat and where they can be found. There is a fishing expedition checklist that is very thorough and easy-to-follow instructions about casting, including lawn casting practice. Knot tying is explained in simple terms and the art of attaching bait to the hook is clearly demonstrated. Recipes for cooking the fish after you have caught and cleaned it are also included. Instructions for keeping a fishing journal, which could turn into a very interesting hobby, are set forth. The book is well-illustrated with pictures of common types of fishing gear and fish. Both salt water and fresh water fishing techniques are discussed. A great item to include with a small rod and reel for that favorite child. 1999, Gibbs-Smith Publisher, Ages 5 to 10, $9.95.
