Description

“Delightful and validating for first-time or would-be goldfish guardians.”—Kirkus Reviews In his big tank in the kitchen, Richard the goldfish quickly bonds with—and even learns to recognize—his human companion, who tells him all about his day after school. A visiting friend, Sandy, shares some fascinating fish facts: Did you know that goldfish nap with their eyes open—because they don’t have eyelids? Or that they can let you know they’re hungry by swimming up and blowing bubbles? Sandy has a backyard pond filled with goldfish of all shapes and jewel-like colors, some much bigger (and older) than his friend’s new pet. What might Richard’s own future hold? Drawn in by the expressive illustrations and child-friendly tone, readers will emerge with a new appreciation for these classic pets, while kids inspired to care for a goldfish of their own will find a list of what they’ll need in the back matter.

Author Biography:

Catherine Rayner is the illustrator of many books for young readers and has won many awards for her artwork, including the Kate Greenaway Medal. She lives in Scotland, and the fish in this book is based on her own pet goldfish named Richard.
