This is Felix "Fishhook" Johnson. Felix spends his free time fishing on Teapot Island all by himself. You see Felix needs to get away by himself because he's always being made fun of by his friends. It's the hat. His mother makes him wear that silly hat all the time. At one point he thought that it would seem cooler if he added a Skull and Crossbones to the hat - he could be a pirate. But his mom didn't like that idea. No. No son of hers was going to be a pirate. But, he could be a fisherman.
So instead of the Skull and Crossbones she added a fishhook to his hat.
His buddies didn't get it. They thought it was just the letter "J" for his last name so they just avoided him. What nut in a pointy hat needs their initial on it?
So everyday now Felix takes his fishing pole and heads on out to the beach. He's just been very lucky as you can see. He has a pile of fish there! Some sparkly fish for dinner tonight. Maybe his mom will get tired of cooking fish and let him be a pirate. Maybe then he could find some sparkly pirate treasure and he could buy teapot island and make all the boys wear silly hats!
And I just now realized that I forgot the mountain and the sun - oh well, it must have been the angle of the photographer in my mind!
