Books with title Big Fish, Little Fish

WELCOME to the big top and get ready to experience a spectacular show, hosted by our mouse emcee! Will Ellie the elephant be able to jump from a very tall ladder into a tiny glass of water? The suspense mounts as Ellie climbs up, gets nervous, can't look down and then jumps . . . right into the glass of water. Through the clever use of gatefold flaps, the reader will learn that what seemed big (Ellie) is really little, and what seemed little (our mouse host) is really big. This simple story can be used on many levels - as a novelty book, as an early reader, and as a literacy tool for those who cannot read English, since the story tells itself through John Stadler's wonderful expressive illustrations.

The story is about a little fish who is coming to stay in a big aquarium full of bigger and older fish. Little Fish is frightened by her surroundings and worried about what the other fish will think of her. With help from some friendly older fish, she gradually becomes more comfortable and confident. In time, she comes to love her new home. On the final page, Little Fish's story has come full circle. She introduces herself to a young newcomer, hoping to befriend her, just as an older fish once befriended a lonely and frightened Little Fish. Children face the challenges of being in new environments and meeting new friends all the way into adulthood. The journey of Little Fish will be enjoyed by children while helping them build social confidence.
