Publisher Description
This e-book includes audio narration.
Turn little pouts into big smiles!
Mr. Fish is nervously awaiting his first day of school, and he frets about not knowing how to write his name, how to draw shapes, and how to do math—until he's reassured that school is the perfect place to learn how to master all of these new skills, in this new Pout-Pout Fish book from Deborah Diesen and Dan Hanna.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In repeating, rhymed verse, Diesen recounts Mr. Fish's first day of school. With big, purple-rimmed eyes and downturned lips, he roams from classroom to classroom, trying to keep up ("The class was doing math,/ And most everybody knew it./ So he tried long division.../ But he just couldn't do it"). Finally, kindly Miss Hewitt introduces him to her classroom for Brand-New Fish right where he belongs. While Mr. Fish's story ends a bit oddly, with a class reunion years later, readers who have known the sinking feeling of falling behind at school should find their spirits buoyed. Ages 2 5.
Customer Reviews
The pout-pout fish goes to school
This book was amazing for my mom and myself. I love how it has words that I need to work on and that I have mastered. Now to my mom: My eight year old still loves reading this book. It really has helped her improve her reading skills.
