PROS:
-I love how this book highlights the amazing stories heard in the library!
-It is a cute book told from the perspective of the library fish.
-Character traits can be discussed since the fish is brave to leave her bowl
-Humorous because all that happens, the librarian never knows

CONS:
-Wordy, it seems like there are so many words on each page that aren't needed. This makes it hard to be a read aloud because with added discussion, this becomes quite long.

Ok, was anyone else worried that no one fed the fish when the library was closed??? lol. This story didn't really hit for me, but I'm sure there's an audience for it out there.
