Fish and Clam

Reading comes easy when comics and sea critters come in fun packages. -- Kirkus Reviews For transitional readers, a great "first" graphic novel offering tidy etiquette lessons and brimming with wit. -- School Library Journal Unlikely duos sorting out how to have fun together are a staple of the beginning reader genre, and this story has added depth in its assertion that sometimes the best way to play is to go with the flow. -- Horn Book Magazine The understated plot allows new readers to focus on the well-chosen words and meaningful emotional arc, and Ruzzier''s slightly bonkers visual world-building keeps things fresh. -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) Fish and Sun are two delightful characters who will touch readers'' hearts. The perfect story for emergent readers and developing visual learners. -- School Library Journal (starred review) A captivating new duo. -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) Uncluttered watercolor illustrations, in Ruzzier''s always imaginative, slightly off-kilter style, reinforce the playful action; the natural language and phonetic patterns will serve readers well; and the emotional drama is just right. -- Horn Book (starred review)
