The Pout-Pout Fish

32 pp. | Farrar | March, 2008 | Trade ISBN 978-0-374-36096-2 $16.00
(3) PS Illustrated by Dan Hanna. "I'm a pout-pout fish / With a pout-pout face, / So I spread the dreary-wearies / All over the place." Such is Mr. Fish's resigned explanation to the other sea animals for his round-the-clock gloom. The all-you-need-is-love ending is a kick, the rhymes are faultless, and the immensely satisfying illustrations call to mind sea life as interpreted by Jim Henson.
