Catherine Rayner: My Pet Goldfish, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Blurb

"Delightful and validating for first-time or would-be goldfish guardians."---Kirkus Reviews

In his big tank in the kitchen, Richard the goldfish quickly bonds with---and even learns to recognize---his human companion, who tells him all about his day after school. A visiting friend, Sandy, shares some fascinating fish facts: Did you know that goldfish nap with their eyes open---because they don't have eyelids? Or that they can let you know they're hungry by swimming up and blowing bubbles? Sandy has a backyard pond filled with goldfish of all shapes and jewel-like colors, some much bigger (and older) than his friend's new pet. What might Richard's own future hold? Drawn in by the expressive illustrations and child-friendly tone, readers will emerge with a new appreciation for these classic pets, while kids inspired to care for a goldfish of their own will find a list of what they'll need in the back matter.
