This story has delightful pictures and an endearing character Mr. Fish. He makes a promise to his friend Ms. Clam and it leads him on an ocean adventure. In his search Mr. Fish is given encouragement to face his fear of the dark and in the end he keeps his promise and overcomes his fear! It is a perfect read aloud book for pre-schoolers.
Deborah Diesen lives in Michigan with her family. Her first book The Pout-Pout Fish was a New York Times best seller and a Time magazine Top 10 Children’s Book of the year.

Hi, can i ask you something? I’m looking for children books with “scary” illustrations like wolf (or fox) eating pigs (or seven kids or Red Riding hood or birds in Chicken Little) or being pictured with a fat stomach. Any sort of help is appreciated. Thanks in advance. Great blog, by the way!
