About book The Story Of Fish And Snail (2013)

Fish and Snail live in the same book, but Fish is more adventurous and often explores other stories. He returns to share them with Snail. When he tries to convince Snail to come adventuring with him (he's found a pirate story!), Snail is reluctant. They have a fight and Fish leaves. Lonely Snail discovers in the end that he has the courage to explore, and - in effect - come out of his shell (not literally!).I really liked the illustrations - snail and fish are adorable. When you move from the book world to the real world, everything is in black and white (nice transitional effect). I would have liked to see more focus on the adventures that Fish and Snail have together (perhaps similar to Frog and Toad stories?). Genre: PostmodernCopyright: 2013Have you ever seen a fish jumping out of a page or a snail rolling from one book to another? It is not about magic; it is about imagination. Another book from Deborah Freedman who tries to push readers beyond their imaginative limits! Two good friends, Fish and Snail, reside in a book, and every day Snail is waiting for Fish to come back and tell a new story. However, it happens one day when Fish encourages Snail to go on an adventure to another book, which is rejected by Snail and results in a fight between them. After Fish jumps to another book, Snail misses Fish and thinks maybe Fish is right. With courage, Snail rolls out of the old book and joins Fish in the new one. Both of them are happily playing pirate game together in their new adventure. Without many texts, this book tells a story about different aspects of friendship -- caring for one another, accepting differences, and enjoying others' company. The watercolor illustrations reinforce the texts, but they can also stand by themselves to tell a whole story. This simple and short story is told in an interactive way with beautiful illustrations that children will enjoy!
