River Tails Bryan Robinson

RIVER TAILS is a silly river-rafting story for children. It also includes a story about helping a child to feel good about their differences. The author made frequent 3 day trips down the Rogue Wild and Scenic River where he was Manager, and funny ridiculosities did occur to him while floating and rowing and camping on the narrow beaches. He told those stories to his children's friends, with an introductory "Did I ever tell you about when I floated down the Rogue?" Children who had heard some of the stories would excitedly come to hear another silly story. Of course the author's children would say "Oh no, not again", and "How do you other kids stand those crazy stories?" But those children loved them. The 75 year old author says he is "still trying to figure out what I want to do when I grow up", and "I grew up once, and I didn't like it".
