**My thoughts**
It's a cute little story about a little white fish that is curious about what it's like in the deep. He defies the warnings of his friends, who tell him it's not safe to go venturing out that far into the deep. And so of course, he gets lost, but is lucky enough to find a fish to help him find his way back home. It's a quick read and the friendly characters are vibrantly colored. The deep dark sea is quite apparent as the pictures get darker and darker.

I would use this book as a talking point about listening to directions, how to stay safe, and what to do if you get lost, and emphasize that the little white fish was lucky to find a safe helper.

Thank you to the publisher for fulfilling my review request via NetGalley. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
