"Could not put it down from first opening the cover. It jogged my
grey matter and brought back long forgotten fun memories and
emotions of growing up in mid- America.
It had me laughing out loud throughout! It made me ponder old
feelings and brought back precious memories." --- Amazon review of
Under the Bed"This book was amazing--- perfect summer reading for
adults and kids alike! I read it first and enjoyed it and then we
read it as a family at bedtime with our 7-year-old, taking turns
reading chapters. His favorite chapter was about the toads escaping
and he is still giggling about some of the other stories too."---
Amazon review of Fish, Frogs, and Fireflies"The book reminds us to
value each moment of our lives, and that time spent fishing is time
well spent. Thank you, Mr. Montgomery, for sharing the wonderful
journey of your fishing adventures as well as bringing a sweet
smile in remembrance of our own." --- Amazon review of Why We Fish
