This children's book, written in verse, tells the story of a young boy who wants to buy a goldfish, only to discover he's brought home a marlin, instead. It's a tale of love and sadness, redeemed by lasting friendship. It's appropriate for children of all ages, whether having it read to them by an adult or reading it themselves.
