Bookroo's summary

Finn, a determined fisherman, only reels in ocean trash instead of fish. With his dog Skip, he turns this misfortune into a recycling venture, transforming debris into treasure. As Finn cleans the sea, he discovers a way to fill his plate and restore the ocean's beauty. Can his innovative spirit save the day and the environment?

From the publisher

Through this charming story, children will become aware of the growing problem of trash polluting the ocean. Fish highlights the issues with a simple and engaging illustrated narrative and also suggests a solution in the form of recycling. All Finn wants is to catch a nice, tasty fish for his dinner, but no matter how hard he tries all he seems to catch at the end of his fishing line is other people’s trash. The longer he spends out on the ocean, the more crazy objects he collects! Finn and his dog Skip go home each day with a full boat, but empty tummies. It isn’t long before Finn finds a way to reuse and recycle everything he has collected. Pretty soon he makes enough money to make a tasty dinner every day, and under his care, the ocean becomes clean, bright, and full of fish again!
