Our infatuation with fly fishing motivated us to share the magic of this growing sport with young readers. April and the Woolly Bugger depicts a girl’s adventure to catch (and recatch) the big one, with the help of her trusty (ugly duckling) fly, “Mr. Woolly Bugger.”
This project is a completed 38 page illustrated picture book, appropriate for ages 6 through 11 years. Rich originally designed the illustrations and typography for letterpress printing. The first edition of 100 letter pressed, artisan-bound books generated enthusiasm for the unique theme and illustrative style. We are interested in publishing this story for a mainstream audience.
