Early one morning, Stanley drives off with just one thing in mind: going fishing. He puts his boat in the stream and rows to all the best fishing spots, but not a single fish bites. Where are they? In the third book in his Stanley series, renowned graphic designer Craig Frazier once again uses his unique imagination to inspire readers to see and think in fresh new ways. And that's no fish story!

Craig Frazier is recognized worldwide for his illustration and graphic design. He is the author of Stanley Goes for a Drive , Stanley Mows the Lawn , and The Illustrated Voice (a personal monograph) and is the designer of the Adobe typeface Critter. He is married with two children and lives in sunny Northern California.
PreSchool-Grade 1–Stanley returns in another simple but surreal picture book. Here, the man puts his boat on his old pickup truck and heads off to a stream to do a bit of fishing. After waiting patiently, he finally feels what he assumes is a big fish on the line, but it turns out to be a sorry-looking boot. Inspired by another of his famous ideas, he casts his line into the sky rather than the water and immediately begins to haul in a boatload of golden fish. He then pours them from his buckets into the stream and heads for home, having had a most satisfactory day. Though the story is intriguing, it is the artwork that captures the eye and sparks the imagination. The crisp, clean illustrations in bright golds, verdant greens, and brilliant blues are a pleasure to behold. Created by hand and digitally colored, the pictures have a calm, uncluttered feel with their black silhouettes in the background and a wide variety of perspectives. Stanley and the fish are happy, and readers will be gratified.–Maryann H. Owen, Racine Public Library, WI
