Critics Review
“This story showcases our similarities, even if we might not see them at first glance, opening the door to discussion about how we connect with each other more deeply than appearances.“—Children’s Literature
“The expressive, stylized art makes excellent use of color, and, like the well-worded narrative, it contrasts the small but confident fish with the large yet tentative bear … Fun for reading aloud.“— Booklist
“A delightful tale of unexpected friendship.“—Kirkus Reviews
