Quick Summary
Mr. Fish's first day of school becomes a kooky underwater treasure hunt as he floats from classroom to classroom, completely flustered by everything the other sea creatures can do, until he finds the perfect spot where he belongs. Kids will giggle at the silly sea creature classmates and cheer when shy Mr. Fish discovers that everyone starts somewhere, with playful rhymes and illustrations that make those first-day jitters feel totally normal. If your kid loves "The Kissing Hand" or "Llama Llama Misses Mama" about managing first-day nerves, they will swim right into this reassuring story. Perfect for ages 4 through 7, ideal for kindergarten and first graders facing their own school debut.
