Book Review: The Oregon Kids: The Big Catch by Bob Richley

Genre: Children's Picture Book

This is a sweet story about a family who goes on a camping trip. The little boy is most excited about fishing with his dad, but then he learns he has to share that time with his little sister. He has to teach her to fish and help her fish and that cuts into his fishing time and he is not happy about it.

I loved this little book. It's absolutely adorable! So many times my own children (similar ages as the children in this story) fight and fight. Then, I witness something so sweet between them and I wonder how I ever thought they were wild, crazy children. That's what this story tells. Siblings are fighting (as parents we so often witness) and then finally, something clicks and you see that love that the children share. It's a great story for kids to remind them that they really do love each other and they want to help their brother or sister out. It's a reminder to be selfless and to love one another.

Author: BOB RICHLEY is a parent and has volunteered for years in children’s ministry. Teaching children good values and the grace of God are his passions. These stories, originally written for a single mom to help her raise her children, are a way to fulfill this passion and help children learn good values. Bob has always loved children and wants all children to be raised with love and grace. It's his hope that his stories will be one of many tools parents will use to teach and raise their children with godly values. You can follow him on Facebook HERE.

I do recommend this to parents who want to teach their children good values. I think it's a great book and demonstrates wonderful attributes kids need to know. I give it FOUR stars! :) ****
