The Pout-Pout Fish

Description

Review "Alexander Gould narrates in multiple roles. In one, he is an even-voiced narrator who emphasizes the repetitions and the rhymes. With a mournful voice, he characterizes the pout-pout fish and then sparkles while giving voice to would-be friends: jellyfish, squid, and clam. Underwater illustrations will engage young listeners." --AudioFile Magazine About the Author Deborah Diesen is the New York Times bestselling author of The Pout-Pout Fish, named by Time Magazine as one of the Ten Best Children's Books of 2008, and The Pout-Pout Fish in the Big-Big Dark.
