JANICE N. CARRINGTON
Poet and children's author Janice N. Harrington grew up in Alabama and Nebraska, and both those settings figure largely in her writing. Her first book of poetry, Even the Hollow My Body Made Is Gone (2007), won the A. Poulin, Jr. Poetry Prize and the Kate Tufts Discovery Award. She is also the author of The Hands of Strangers: Poems from the Nursing Home (2011) and Primitive: The Art and Life of Horace H. Pippin (2016). Her children's books, The Chicken Chasing Queen of Lamar County (2007) and Going North (2004), have won several awards and citations, including a listing among Time Magazine's top 10 children's books and the Ezra Jack Keats Award from the New York Public Library.
Harrington has been awarded a fellowship from the National Endowment for the Arts and a Rona Jaffe Foundation Writers' Award for emerging women writers. She has worked as a public librarian and now teaches in the creative writing program at the University of Illinois.

SYNOPSIS
ABOUT CATCHING A STORYFISH
This lyrical middle-grade novel-in-verse celebrates the power of story and of finding one's individual voice.

Keet knows the only good thing about moving away from her Alabama home is that she'll live near her beloved grandfather. When Keet starts school, it's even worse than she expected, as the kids tease her about her southern accent. Now Keet, who can "talk the whiskers off a catfish," doesn't want to open her mouth. While fishing with her grandfather, she learns the art of listening and gradually, she makes her first new friend. But just as she's beginning to settle in, her grandfather has a stroke, and even though he's still nearby, he suddenly feels ever-so-far-away. Keet is determined to reel him back to her by telling him stories; in the process she finds her voice and her grandfather again.
