Fridays are for Fish Frys

ABOUT THE BOOK

Jack joins his uncle on his fishing boat early Friday morning. But when their catch comes in a little small, Jack starts to worry. Will there be enough food for everyone coming to their Friday night fish fry?

Join Jack and his family for a Friday night fish fry, where everyone is welcome and no one goes hungry in this celebration of food and community that honors a Midwest tradition.

Author and illustrator Laura Sprtel gravitated toward drawing, coloring and painting, and all things creative, from a young age. As a lifelong Wisconsinite, Laura has attended many Friday night fish frys—though she still hasn’t figured out the perfect tartar sauce recipe. When not dreaming up her next story, you might find Laura running, digging in her dahlia garden or exploring the great outdoors with her husband and two children. Fridays are for Fish Frys is Laura’s debut picture book.
