This is a simple, sweet story where the artwork really stands out. Award-winning author-illustrator Catherine Rayner has created gorgeously mesmerising and lifelike fish that shimmer in their watery world. Each spread is so beautifully detailed, littles ones, and grown-ups will linger on every page to soak everything up.
Not just a visual delight, the book is full of fishy facts - some funny, some fascinating - making this a perfect choice for first-time owners.
