Review

Pout Pout Fish is heading to school and he finds it scary and new. But thanks to his teacher he finds his way and realizes school isn't so bad once you give yourself a chance. This is a great book to help children just entering school see that it can be hard but you will find your way. A good moral lesson told through rhyming text and colorful illustrations. The binding is strong and it is fun to read. The pictures are large and go well with the text. A great book for boys and girls starting out at school.

Overall Book Score: very good
