From near to far
from here to there,
funny things are everywhere.

Ratings and reviews

The fish (anthropomorphic possibly Darwinian) represent our differences in society. I enjoy how Dr. Seuss attempts to control social stigma and racism (blue fish red fish) at an early age by describing different characters (the fat fish with the yellow hat), as well as presenting deformities (the fish has 11 fingers) as all being fish we see in everyday life. Also excellent reading presentation. 5/5

Good book, but the reading was very fast, even at 1x.

love it so much
