Review
I thoroughly enjoyed the Fish On Kids Books series Houtman has a wonderful talent. I thought it was going to be another story about just going fishing. But the stories are more than that. They are refreshing and have extremely valuable content interwoven in a fully developed story. I'm engaged in the life of Gus and when one book ends, I want to find out what he is up to in the next. --Sharon Rushton, Outdoor Writer and author of No Paved Road to Freedom
In a time when too many kids are missing out on what the outdoors have to offer, Houtman's book series drives home the point: Mother Nature is the world's best teacher after all. --Scott Richardson, Outdoor Editor of The Pantagraph, Bloomington, Illinois
From cover to cover the best series of chapter books I've seen in years. These books are wholesome with a focus on adventure. Wish I had them when I was a kid. I'm still a kid at heart and prolific reader. These are my kind of books. --Larry Rea, host, Outdoors with Larry Rea, Country Legends WMC 79, Memphis, TN
