Description
An enchanting story about an adventurous girl and her day at sea with Bonefish Joe, one of the best-known bonefish guides in the Bahamas.
Young and fearless, Flossie, lives on Harbour Island, a small outpost in the Bahamas known for its exquisite three-mile pink sand beach and for bonefishing, a catch-and-release enterprise that pits a determined angler against an inedible, surprisingly powerful, and elusive quarry.
Flossie’s dream is to go fishing with the legendary guide Bonefish Joe, a beloved island institution who picks up clients at the dock and returns with them hours later, still fishless but satisfied. One Sunday, after church, Flossie’s wish is surprisingly granted, and she and her friend discover the allure, the challenge, and the delights of hooking (and releasing) one of angling’s greatest prizes.
Diana Wege’s lush and vibrant illustrations of the island, its people, its customs, and its architecture, perfectly captures the character, culture, and charm of the Bahamas and Harbour Island.
