Age range 3 to 6An adorable goldfish is feeling Too Crowded and goes on a journey to discover the world beyond his fishbowl. . . only to learn there' s no place like homeGil the goldfish lives in a fishbowl with 138 pebbles - he counts them every day - and a plastic castle. It' s too crowded! When leaves his fishbowl in search of open spaces, he finds a loud, dangerous, dry land that is full of many interesting creatures but is not quite suitable for a fish. Thank goodness for Turtle, the new friend Gil meets in the not-so-great outdoors! Will Gil and Turtle make it back to the fishbowl, and will Gil make peace with his home sweet home?
"I loved the illustrations in this story-bright, bold, and showed the hilarious expression of Gil on his adventures. I think children will enjoy seeing his new home choices and deciding for themselves if those choices would be right for Gil. " - Youth Services Book Review "The story is a satisfying balance of familiar and fresh, with an endearing protagonist and an especially timely message about isolation and connection. . . Utterly delightful. " - Kirkus Reviews, STARRED review
