I Am a Squirmy Wormy is the simple story of how one little girl wiggles through the events of her day. In fact, she wiggles and squirms so much that her grandmother named this book after her! “My granddaughter Bailey would not sit still while being changed and dressed. So I started calling her a Squirmy Wormy and made up short rhymes based on what she was doing. I would recite the rhyme while changing and dressing her, and it would settle her. I then expanded on the rhymes and it evolved into the book.” This delightful children’s story introduces such key words as right and left, and up and down. You likely will get some giggles as this little girl wiggles! Publisher’s website:http://sbpra.com/RobinAKnaggs

This completely new flyfishing guide to New England is the best flyfishing guide ever on this fishery-rich and historic area. Author and flyfishing guide Lou Zambello provides all the information to improve your catch rate in Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont and Masschusetts. Full-color maps accompany the fisheries, complete with GPS coordinates, access points, public land, access roads, boat ramps (including small hand launches), parking areas, named holes and pools and more. Many flyfishers flock to the same well-known waters that are written about again and again and face crowded conditions. Yet there are hundreds of productive waters that are ignored. Zambello, who has spent over 30 years fishing in New England, teamed with former Maine State Fisheries Director John Boland and other experts to cover many of these great uncrowded waters in the Flyfisher's Guide to New England. Lou spent the last several years criss-crossing New England researching this book, a review of many hundreds of both popular and unknown, moving and stillwaters in Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, and Massachusetts. Following Wilderness Adventures Press' tradition of creating the best flyfishing guide books, the new full-color Flyfisher's Guide to New England will help you get your own piece of fishing heaven. Also check out Zambello's first book, Flyfishing Northern New England's Seasons.
