Review Quotes
"PreS-K-Little White Fish uses his -underwater world, full of rainbow-hued creatures, set out to demonstrate basic -lessons for young readers. Colors pop against the black background, a purple octopus
and green water fleas appear neon against the page. Each book -includes prompts for the reader to look closer. Can they count a little more? Can they trace a line with their finger? These small -interactions with the book make reading a tangible experience. Little White Fish and his -Playmates features sections on counting, colors, shapes, and teamwork. Those concepts are also -introduced in Little White Fish is Born, a softer, quicker take on counting and -colors, with plenty of cuddles -between White Fish and their -rainbow-streaked -parents. -VERDICT Endearing and educational with cute -animals, fun for little ones." - School Library Journal
