The Noodleheads, Mac and Mac, are back in this third graphic novel for readers in grades k-3.  Fishing is the topic throughout the three chapter story with a beginning preface.  This comical, easy reader in graphic novel form integrates the slap stick young readers enjoy with clear, colorful action frames with a readable text.  The story weave jokes, reminiscent of Amelia Bedelia, in a plot line about learning three things as only two Noodleheads can appreciate.  In the first chapter, Mac and Mac get taken advantage of by Meathead who steals their snacks and money, but Noodleheads always figure things out.  In chapter 2, the Noodleheads experience how a boat works and chapter three they learn that the biggest fish always get away.  Recommended fun reading for children’s graphic novel collections.
