I like children books that have life lesson to share. The characters and pictures are cute and lovable. The little boy learns to be patient and selfless with his sister. And when finally he got what he wants, the reward is priceless. Interesting review :!:

Thanks for the informative review. I like that you mentioned the illustrator and that he did good work. Looks like a cute read for early readers.

Thank you to the reviewer for letting me know what this book was about. The few pages on the Amazon sample were totally inadequate to form an opinion on whether to read or not. From the review it sounds like an enjoyable story with a few lessons on behavior and patience when things don't go right. Since some of the adult fiction samples run to chapters, why not include more than 3 pages for a children's book.

When I was a kid, I loved my books on moral lessons. I read and reread the Book of Virtues and other books like that. I think it's very valuable for a child to have not only entertaining books that fuel a passion for reading, but also character-building books that are not a waste of time. Good job. Your review made me feeling very optimistic about this book.

I can't get over how cute it is that its focus is on Billy wanting to go fishing. Very cute.

Thank you for your review!

I think children between ages 6 and 12 are going to enjoy the story. I believe the story should increase love for outdoor and camping. Also to manage expectation, tolerance and problem solving. I will rate it 4 stars.
