聽著爺爺分享釣魚的故事,找回自信心!附上作者講述本書的影片供參考:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rIIPP44ztq8

一個美麗的秋日,阿爾特(Art)跟媽媽和爺爺一起釣魚去,這是阿爾特最愛的活動。他們常去的河流有許多鱒魚,他會向爺爺討教釣魚的技巧,還有各種飛蠅釣的餌和工具的使用方法。聽著爺爺講述關於媽媽第一次釣魚便成功抓到大魚的故事後,阿爾特開始懷疑自己的釣魚技術。但在爺爺悉心的指導下,阿爾特釣到了一條美麗的棕色鱒魚。

釣魚這活動真是有意思,又能與家人一起度過快樂的一天,阿爾特默默地對自己許下承諾,家族釣魚活動一定要世世代代地傳承下去。

● 媒體報導

“The book deftly touches on family, traditions, wisdom of grandparents, appreciating wildlife, and identifying bugs...Children will enjoy the story and adults will appreciate the sentiment...”-Fly Fisher Magazine

"I believe this illustrated book will not only encourage young anglers to give fishing a try, but will also resonate with adults who might find themselves reminiscing and/or eager to create new experiences with their families.” -Fly Fisher Magazine

“It blends family cohesion (mom and grandpa both take time telling stories and helping teach Art to fly fish), subtle contexts of fly fishing, and a gentle message of conservation” -Jensen Fly Fishing

"A heartwarming picture book about fishing and family... a celebration of the power of the sport to draw families together and back to cherished natural places." - Dun Magazine
