Description
A humble fisherman is taking a nap in his boat when a tourist interrupts him to point out that instead of napping, the fisherman could go out and catch more fish, which would eventually earn him more money. With comic-like illustrations, this funny and thoughtful book will inspire readers to celebrate life's simple pleasures.
