Trout publishes children's book.(NW Journal: A Look at News From Northwest Arkansas)

Four-time Grammy-nominated duet Trout Fishing in America has released a new children's storybook-music CD combo, "My Name is Chicken Joe."

The Prairie Grove group--which has been called the "Lennon and McCartney of children's music"--brought the new children's themed piece to life beginning April 7 when the book was released via Canadian publishing house, The Secret Mountain.

"My Name is Chicken Joe," which tells the story of a whimsical cat named Chicken Joe, features an album of 11 previously released Trout Fishing in America songs inserted in the back cover of the book including the title track.

Keith Grimwood and Ezra Idlet, the two members of Trout Fishing in America, wrapped up a five-month long tour in May.
