Coal Coalson and Andy Anderson are two cousins setting out on the riverside adventure of their lives The ornery ten and eight-year-olds have swallowed their PawPaw's fishing "tail" hook, line, and sinker, about Charlie, a legendary gigantic catfish. This yellow finned catfish is "as big as a house, and as long as a tree" and as the story goes has "eaten bicycles, a helmet, and many a shoe." The mischievous boys spend a hot summer's day creating a tale of their own, exploring the river from above and below the surface in pursuit of the catch of a lifetime. "The Adventures of Charlie the Catfish" take us all back to those carefree summer adventures that become mystical family tales passed down from generation to generation.
