From the publisher

Two delightfully anxious friends learn that they can overcome anything–even gravity–in this humorous and heartwarming picture book from bestselling author Aaron Reynolds and illustrator Debbie Ridpath Ohi. Bob the puffer fish and his best buddy Sea Monkey may be little but they’ve got one ocean-sized problem. Sea Monkey’s terrified he’ll sink straight to the bottom of the ocean.

Sea Monkey and Bob learn that sometimes the only way to overcome your fears is to just keep holding on…
