Fisch lügt rum, bißle langweilig, paar unheimliche Fische ( )

My sons and I are huge fans of the Donaldson/Shaefller books.

The prose in Tiddler is beautifully structured. I find the best kids books have a real rhythm to them and these increase the enjoyment level of both the adults and kids.

The beautiful artwork will engage even the smallest child,(mine especially loved the Gruffalo-fish!).

A good choice for bedtime. ( )

I loved this book, the illustrations were very colorful. Very imaginative story of a fish. I think this would be great for all children and fun for adults to read aloud. This book promotes storytelling, because without it the little fish may have never made it back to school. It shows how stories are passed from fish to fish. Very cute book I would recommend to everyone. ( )

Tiddler is a fish who's a liar-liar-pants on fire! He's late for school every day and always has some tall tale to tell about what happened to make him late. But one day, he really IS late for school for an exciting (and scary!) reason. When he finally gets home, no one believes him.

Fairly innocuous retelling of "The Boy Who Cried Wolf." Children who are especially interested in fish and the ocean (or who have just seen "Finding Nemo") will probably especially appreciate pooring over the detailed illustrations. There's nothing special or terribly unique in the narrative, though. ( )
