Bookroo's summary

Goldfish enjoys his solitary life, swimming in his bowl, until unexpected intruders—a hyperactive bubbler, a grime-eating snail, amorous guppies, and a crabby crab—invade his space. Annoyed, he longs for peace, but when relocated for cleaning, he realizes he misses them. Can Goldfish embrace the chaos and find joy in companionship? Discover the surprising benefits of friendship in this charming tale.

From the publisher

A goldfish gives a personal account of his experiences while swimming around his bowl as it slowly fills with fish and other accessories, only to realize when he is relocated for a cleaning how much he misses them.
