<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"... Mr. Fish refuses to share his tree with Bird and Cat--until he learns that making friends is more rewarding than losing them."--Provided by publisher.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>In this humorous and heartwarming picture book, Mr. Fish refuses to share his tree with Bird and Cat--until he learns that making friends is more rewarding than losing them.</b> <p/>Bird and Cat meet in a tree. But someone already lives in this tree--Mr. Fish. And he does <i>not</i> want to share. <p/> After Bird and Cat leave, Mr. Fish discovers that it's actually pretty boring to sit in a tree all by yourself. Getting Bird and Cat back--along with Mr. Fish's old friends from the sea--is going to require some real work. And Mr. Fish is already having a tough time, because fish aren't supposed to be on land in the first place. <p/> Author-illustrator Peter Stein has created a quirky, hilarious take on the challenges and rewards of friendship--and being a fish out of water--in this unforgettable picture book that feels like a rediscovered classic. <p/><b>An Imprint Book</b></p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"This story about friendly cooperation, expressed through dialogue, soliloquy, and narrative, is a comical hoot; the simple, matter-of-fact, dryly witty text will arouse kids' giggles throughout. The riotous cartoon illustrations ably drive the lively proceedings; Mr. Fish is especially expressive, a master of the absurd. Note the punny final page . . . Nothing fishy here: an adorable, laugh-out-loud winner." --<i>Kirkus Reviews, </i><b>starred review</b> <p/>"Whimsical, quirky, and unpredictable enough to keep kids and adults alike on their toes, this is a winner for story times or one-on-one--an all-around charming addition to picture book collections." --<i>School Library Journal, </i><b>starred review</b></p><br>
