* A must-add for individual collections and storytime rotations. -- Larisa Martin, Youth Librarian, Charlotte Mecklenburg Library * A lot of actions that parents and tots could act out together as well as reinforcing the colors. A cute little story that would be quick to read, but with a lot of follow up and rereading possibilities. -- Carolyn Johnson-Hicks, elementary educator * A charming children's book for ages two and up.... about friendship. The drawings are delightful & it's a fun book to read. My favorite little boy loved it & wanted me to read it again. -- Carolyn Injoy-Hertz, reviewer * An excellent book to share with very young children. -- Barbara Stolz, educator * Lovely little picture book that focused on friendship and how you can make and be friends with a variety of different people/things - easy to follow and read. I can see everyone loving Little White Fish - highly recommended. -- Donna McGuire, Donna's Book Blog * Very colorful and bold....could spark discussions about colors, actions and of course, what lives under the ocean! -- I.J Hamilton, Goodreads
