Bookroo's summary
Mr. Fish faces his fear of the dark to help Ms. Clam find her lost pearl. Despite his speed, intelligence, and strength, the deep ocean's mysteries challenge him. As he ventures into unknown waters, will friendship illuminate his path and conquer his fears? Dive into this underwater adventure where courage and camaraderie shine through the darkest depths.
From the publisher
Mr. Fish wants to help his friend Ms. Clam when she loses her pearl, but though he’s fast as a sailfish, as smart as dolphin, and as strong as a shark, Mr. Fish has a secret: he’s scared of the dark! Very young children will swim along with Mr. Fish as he journeys deep into the ocean to new and mysterious places. They will discover, as Mr. Fish does, the power of friendship to light the way through the big-big dark.
