Christopher Paul Vandahl: Joey Mishdon Wished He'd Gone Fishin', Gebunden

Klappentext

When Dad says, "Let's go fishin'," young inventor Joey Mishdon has other ideas-epic ones! Armed with imagination and a garage full of gadgets, Joey builds a rocket ship from Mom's vacuum, his sister's swing and even an old shopping cart. With best pals Johnny and Ike cheering him on, Joey dreams of blasting off to capture space monsters, battle cosmic goo, and become Earth's ultimate hero.

As dusk descends and it's time for his friends to go home, Joey's wild contraption propels him into an out-of-this-world adventure: blue grass, purple skies and a zany pickle-like storyteller named Green Sam await.

But when a Fierce Kachoo terrorizes the land, Joey musters his courage to hunt down a Whatsit-a goofy, long-toed beast with a horn shaped nose that adores kids and fluffy puppy fur-to help turn the tide. Facing wobbly knees, roaring cheers, and a wave of homesickness, Joey learns that bravery comes in many forms. Will his epic quest bring him back to what matters most?

Bursting with vibrant, whimsical illustrations and rollicking rhyme, this heartwarming picture book by Christopher Paul VanDahl celebrates boundless creativity, courageous dreams, and the gentle reminder: the greatest adventures often begin-and end-with the ones you love most.

Perfect for ages 4-8, dreamers, inventors, and anyone who's ever chosen playtime over plans.
