" This is such a fun book! I love the relationship between grandpa and grandson as demonstrated through their day fishing. It’s precious! The tie in with life lessons and fishing lessons is clever, with a fun little twist at the end. And I loved the author photos (you’ll have to read to see what I mean!) An overall super cute, but also sentimental and wise, story for kiddos (and their adults!) This would make a great gift for any fisherman dad or grandpa, too! " - Marcy

What Folks Are Saying About "Good Deeds Gone Wrong"
from Karen
" A fun story kids can connect with about good deeds going wrong. We've all had good intentions that didn't quite work out when we acted on them, and this book portrays that in very relatable way. I'm sure kids will have a good laugh and experience some relief seeing that they're not alone in having had their good deeds gone wrong. "
From Susan
" This is a great book! Very cute, but also funny. I was laughing out loud at times. It’s a character-building story for children to learn kindness and perseverance- to keep trying and not be hard on themselves no matter how many let downs they experience. "
from Lynne
" Even as adults, we have good deeds that go wrong. You can’t help but root for Stephen as he tries his best to be kind to everyone he meets. While those plans are derailed at every turn, it’s heartwarming to see him pick himself up, dust himself off, and move forward. It’s a lesson we can all learn! "
