Publisher Summary

The classic story illustrated by Crockett Johnson, the creator of Harold and the Purple Crayon, about a young boy who goes out fishing and the little fish that gets away—now with a fresh new jacket design! A little boy goes fishing every day, but he never catches anything—no, not a single fish. So he waits. He waits and waits and waits and waits, and one day, a GREAT GREAT big fish swims by…. A favorite for generations, this witty twist on an old fisherman’s tale featuring an updated look is certain to hook new fans!
