Love how tactile and bright this book is.

We were given the paperback version for number 1 and absolutely loved it. We loved it so much I thought a board version would make sense for number 2. The illustrations are lovely and we all know it from cover to cover…. only disappointment with this copy is that it is in American English so uses the word ‘gripy’ instead of ‘grumpy’ and ‘mom’ instead of ‘mum’. Not exactly the end of the world but…..

Really lovely book, very well illustrated and a nice simple story about meeting friends but mum (I change it to dad when I am reading it) is the best one of all. We play ‘which fish do you like the best’ and ‘spot me this kind of fish’ as well as reading the story itself, so it provides hours of fun. When we go to the aquarium we spot the fish that are in the book! A great addition to any toddler’s library.

We saw an episode of Play School Australia when they used this book as one of their story book for the day. I loved the colours and picture so got it as a Christmas present for my little girl (she is 23 months old). 3 weeks further, this book is a firm favourite and we read it twice before bedtime and a further third if have it her way. The book is lovely and big with bright bold colours. Lovely description and adjectives to describe the fishes in simple words and plenty of scope for yourselves to describe the fishes. My daughter identifies herself as the little fish and calls it by her own name (Yaya fish!). We count, we make funny faces and do a lot of recognising and recalling whilst reading. Overall this is a winner.

My 1 yo daughter loves this book. She makes all the faces of the fish and learns so much reading it.

In this charming book for pre-schoolers, Little Fish invites us to explore the ocean and meet all his friends. After being introduced to happy fish, grumpy fish, hairy fish, scary fish and even curly-wurly fish (amongst others), we finally get to meet Little Fish’s favourite fish of all – Mummy!
Lucy Cousins, best known for creating Maisy the mouse, has really gone to town dreaming up all sorts of weird and wonderful undersea creatures. The illustrations are bold and enticing for young readers, and there are lots of lovely descriptive words in the text. The fact that some of the fish are very fanciful makes it a great book for spotting things – colours, shapes, stripes and spots, as well as hair, teeth and even a fish that looks like a pineapple!
This was, without a doubt, my daughter’s favourite book in her first year. She loved to turn the pages and to look for Little Fish, who appears in each drawing. The board book edition is a nice size for little hands to hold, and robust enough to withstand a certain amount of rough treatment!
If you’re looking for a fun tale packed with colourful characters, ‘Hooray for Fish!’ comes highly recommended.
