A Fish Out of Water - Hardcover
by Helen Palmer (Author), P. D. Eastman (Illustrator)
A classic, comic easy reader about getting a pet!
In this beloved Beginner Book, a young boy hilariously learns the consequences of not following instructions when he feeds too much to his goldfish--causing it to grow as big as a whale! With delightfully retro illustrations by P.D. Eastman (Go, Dog. Go!), the message of the book--that getting a pet is a big responsibility--is as true today as it was when the book was published in 1961.
