The Strangest Fish
In this bewitching picture book debut from bestselling fantasy author Katherine Arden, a girl wins an odd-looking goldfish at a county fair that ends up being secretly magical. When Daisy wins a funny-looking goldfish at a fair, she ignores the mean comments about its appearance. She doesn't mind the dull scales and lumpy head--in fact, she thinks her goldfish is the prettiest thing in the world. However, as Daisy continues caring for the goldfish, something strange starts happening to it . . . With lyrical writing and stunning illustrations, this enchanting story about a girl and her goldfish reveals--with a touch of magic-- the transformative power of unconditional love and care.
