7 Year-Old Author Wrote and Illustrated "500 Pound Tarpon" for Mote Marine

A 7-year-old fishing enthusiast wrote and illustrated a book called "500 Pound Tarpon". Catching a tarpon changed Hampton Boney's life. After landing the fish, he wrote and illustrated a book by himself. Page by page, it took almost one month. His mom helped him get it published and the book is being sold for $10 each with $1 going back to Mote Marine Laboratory. So far, he has sold 513 books and has two more books in the works. The next one is "105 Pound Trout". That book will be released once he sells out of the "500 Pound Tarpon". Let's help him reach that goal!
