The funny follow up to the New York Times bestselling The Pout-Pout Fish from Deborah Diesen and Dan Hanna
Mr. Fish wants to help his friend Ms. Clam when she loses her pearl, but though he's fast as a sailfish, as smart as dolphin, and as strong as a shark, Mr. Fish has a secret: he's scared of the dark! Very young children will swim along with Mr. Fish as he journeys deep into the ocean to new and mysterious places. They will discover, as Mr. Fish does, the power of friendship to light the way through the big-big dark.Review Quotes
"The playful, rhyming verse is well matched with Hanna's funny cartoon illustrations." --School Library Journal
"With colorful seascapes and bright-eyed ocean characters, Hanna gives this spirited tale light doses of humor ('Rest stop!' reads a neon sign on an anglerfish's lure), as Diesen delivers a gentle moral: 'The ocean is wide, / And the ocean is deep, / But friends help friends--/ That's a promise we keep.'." --Publishers Weekly "An entertaining read-aloud and a nice lighthearted vehicle for dealing with fear." --Kirkus ReviewsAbout the Author

We were exited to get some physical copies of Pout Pout fish after reading some of them on our phones through an app. Our daughter will be there soon and is starting to be apprehensive of the dark so I figured this would be a great topic for her.
Great book for all ages

Love this book! I like the story and how the fish is scared of the dark- children big and small can relate to having fears and being scared of some things in life. So fun to read and really entertaining for kids of all ages. It doesn’t hurt that the pictures are pretty, too!
