A cute story about a fish who is wearing a hat, but he
acquired it by stealing it from a big fish. The big fish was asleep, so he
decided to take it. As the little fish swims away, he tries to convince himself that the big
fish will not miss his hat, know it was him, or find him for that matter. He
tells himself that he knows it is wrong to steal, but decides to keep it because
it fits him just right. He makes his way to where the plants are big and tall,
and tells himself that no one will ever find him there. To his surprise, the big
fish had been following close behind, and was able to get his hat back, even in
the big tall plants. This is a wonderful book for kids in the primary grades. This book does an awesome job of pulling the reader into the journey to the tall grass. Kids will be rooting the little fish, in hopes that he will make it to the tall grass. Stealing is not good, and this book is very explicit about communicating this message to the reader. Teacher can use this book for inferencing, the students can maike an inference on what they thing happened to the littel fish. Simple and brilliant all at the same time.
