The One That Got Away
by Pat Andersen
Rex Rogers and the One That Got Away is a heartwarming outdoor adventure about confidence, resilience, and discovering that you’re stronger than you think—hook, line, and sinker.
Rex Rogers knows one thing for sure—he’s at his best when he’s on the water with a fishing rod in his hand. School is tough, making friends is even tougher, but the lake behind his grandpa’s farm in Wisconsin? That’s his happy place.
This summer, Rex is determined to prove what he’s made of by entering the local kids’ fishing tournament. Armed with his grandpa’s old tips and a tacklebox full of dreams, Rex sets out to catch the trophy fish everyone talks about. But when the "big one" slips through his fingers, Rex feels like a failure—both on and off the dock.
Through unexpected friendships, a few tangled lines, and some wise words from Grandpa, Rex learns that winning doesn’t always mean taking home a prize. Sometimes, the greatest catch of all is believing in yourself—even when things don’t go as planned.
