Whether you are reading with intention of traveling to Branson, live nearby it, or never intend to step foot in Missouri, you will become a more knowledgeable angler.
• Here is an Excerpt from the Introduction -- "The sun is on the eastern horizon, making a purple pink pastel painting of the sky while the moon is still hanging in the west. The fog is so thick you cannot see the anglers or the water that await 30 feet below the slippery, well worn wooden steps that lead from the rocky parking area into the foggy abyss. On the right, parallel to the stairs, of the stair the second hatchery outlet forms a near perfect replica of a small roaring mountain stream, complete with 15 inch rainbow trout in full rose and crimson colors that bob, jockey, weave between each other in the current to snap up any morsel that drifts past. You begin your careful decent down the stairs, encumbered by your thick waders and fleece jacket, and as you decent you are engulfed by the fog, and hear the hatchery outlet waters become a waterfall. As you continue to descend you begin to make out the ghostly shapes of your fellow anglers, and hear a new sound: splashing fish and whipping fly casts. As you hit the water and move out into the lake-cum-river and feel bumps against your legs as 12 to 20 inch rainbows dog your steps like puppies. Gazing over the surface you make out fins and backs breaking the surface like sharks cruising for a meal, the distance between some of these dorsal fins and tails is over 20 inches though you are doubting what your eyes perceive through the gloom. Your first cast lands perpendicular and out into the swifter deeper water as your crackleback gently lands on the surface. Your intent is to let it drift downstream before pulling it under, however a three-foot brown trout decides its breakfast time and with a light ‘plop’ inhales it. Quicker than you can react the beast has felt the prick of your #18 hook and using its years of experience it knows instinctively that a swift run may part the leader. Before your conscious brain acknowledges the take, the brown has used her 1-centimeter teeth and 20 mile per hour speed to part your four-pound tippet. Welcome to Lake Taneycomo."

• Dolphin and Manatee Friends End to End (Grant's Book of Manatees)
  • 

    ISBN: 9781426916786

    Available electronically on Kindle Here

    The previous book focused primarily on fishes, with two whale species. This one focuses on marine mammals, sea cows (mantees and dugongs) and seven species of dolphins world wide. It is essentially a tale of friendly encounters between these species (a little license is used here), showing a few of the great variety of dolphins and their relatives, from river dolphins to open ocean dolphins to shallow water dolphins. All animals are shown in real world ecosystems accompanied by the species they would share a habitat with (example dolphins, tuna, sardines, and shearwaters; or manatees, shrimp, sheepsheads, and snappers). At the end of the book is a review of each dolphin, sea cow, or fish, and an invitation for the read to (or reader) to find each dolphin, fish, and seacow in the pages of the book. Two of the dolphins are harder to find than the others! The pictures and story will get a smile from even the youngest or oldest audience, though it is fun for both reader and listener.

• Poor Buck's Trial
  • 

    Poor Buck's Trial is a short fictional story set in the middle twentieth century, about an innocent misunderstanding. The word 'trial' has multiple meanings, and a child (the storyteller) can pick the wrong one. Since the child also loves a dog (Buck), a 'Dog Trial' has special meaning. The story covers both how the child experiences a normal weekend, has a very bad dream, and learns something new. The story is made to be read to younger children, and be read by children 9-14 years in age. Anyone who loves the outdoors, loves fishing, and loves dogs, will find it fun. Note: Any reader will also suffer through my pencil drawings as well, since the story is set before the age of computer graphics!
