Fish from Fish and Sun is back for another adventure. This time, Fish meets a small friendly wave but when Wave grows and grows, what’s a little fish to do? After a scary encounter with a really big wave, Fish rides on Wave’s back to endure the rise and fall of Wave’s natural way.

This is a gentle book for new readers. The text is sparse and perfect for those working on independent reading. It is in graphic novel format, so it’s a great opportunity for young readers to learn how to read panels. Ruzzio’s watercolor and line drawing illustrations bring the story to life and help carry the sparse text. Recommended for readers 4 and up.
