"Definite Top Ten of 2018 contender….No matter what animals your child likes, this book has something for everyone. And it’s simple. Perfect for little ones to understand as you read to them, or even beginning readers to read by themselves….Have a child younger than three? They will love looking at the pictures and listening to you read. How about a child older than six? They’re going to be able to read this on their own, possibly even to younger siblings, friends or cousins!” - Ginger Mom Reads

Praise for the LITTLE WHITE FISH series:

"Guido Van Genechten’s Little White Fish books make a sweet series for the youngest readers. Small children will love the smiling sea creatures and the playful relationship among the friends. In Little White Fish Is So Happy, young grammarians are introduced to a few of the most common prepositions, with clear visuals to reinforce their meaning. ...The endearing relationship among these friends will charm young children as the idea of being away from home is presented in an upbeat way that encourages independence while also reassuring little ones of parents’ love and attention." - Mom Read It (LITTLE WHITE FISH IS SO HAPPY)
