Synopsis

Prepare yourself.

"Fishin' for Trouble" is about to hook you!

These two new stories by Vail Johnson - a 9-year-old scribe - and Ed Payne - a veteran journalist and children's author - are just what this cynical world needs. They're full of friendship, humor and insight.

While Vail died suddenly in her sleep before she could turn 10, her unique stories are still putting smiles on faces and teaching lessons to young and old alike. Payne's storytelling skills refine the young writer's promise and the vivid images of illustrator Britt Sekulic transport you into Vail's world where she grabs your imagination and inspires your soul.
