Who?
Strangely named creatures of the sea: hawksbills and parrotfish and snappers, groupers, sea stars, pufferfish, angelfish, triggerfish! Beautiful depictions of the plants and animals that live and lurk under the sea and on the ocean floor. And animals with true-to-life expressions on their face. Plus a mysterious plot!
What Happened?
Hero is a hawksbill turtle whose diet consists of sea sponges and angelfish but whose best friends are also angelfish. She travels the ocean and then returns home to find - not much! Not much in the way of colorful fish or corals. She asks the few remaining fish what happened and decides to go on a quest to save her home.
