"Gone Fishin' with Kids (How to Take Your Kid Fishing and Still beFriends)" was born of the parental frustrations of author Joe Perrone, Jr, who failed miserably in his efforts to get his kids to fish with him. Aware of his friend, Manny Luftglass's success fishing with his own children, Joe suggested that maybe, together, they could write a book to help other parents to avoid a similar plight. The result is a work filled with useful, practical information about fishing with children. Some of the topics covered include: When to start; where to go; what to fish for; "the first experience"; even what food to bring The writing is light, simple, and to the point, and the book is filled with personal experiences, photos, and cartoons.
