Spunky eleven-year-old Catfish Annie travels with her grandfather on a houseboat, hauling freight up and down the Mississippi River in the late 1940s. Fishing in the river, helping with the work, and meeting interesting people are all activities that fill Annie's days and teach her many important lessons.
