About This Story

Grandpa Ivy & the Fishing Pond

Grandpa Ivy wakes up one summer morning and decides he is hungry for trout for dinner. So he grabs his fishing rod and heads to the pond, hoping to catch some trout. Grandpa Ivy casts his line three different times into the fishing hole. There is a tug on his line each time, but there isn't a fish when he reels it in.

Grandpa Ivy doesn’t catch any fish, but he does catch some pond grass, an old boot, and an old tire. Grandpa Ivy laughs on his way home, imagining what a meal he could make with grass, a boot, and a tire. “Sometimes you catch something, and sometimes you don’t.”
