Description
Publisher's Description of Fishing on Thin Ice (Wilderness Ridge)
Jimmy Benge is
excited to celebrate his thirteenth birthday with an ice fishing
adventure in northern Minnesota. He's even allowed to invite his best
friend, Ryan, to spend winter break at the family’s lakeside home. The
two boys learn a lot about ice fishing and catch a few panfish but
decide to fish for something bigger: Northern pike, the alpha predators
of the lake. The trip is fun until one day, while out fishing by
themselves, the boys are hit by a sudden, unexpected snowstorm and find
themselves fishing on thin ice.
