I enjoyed reading this book to my own children, who got a laugh out of the twin fishes. Title: Hooray for Fish Author: Lucy Cousins, Lucy Cousins Publisher: Walker Books ISBN: 9781406373158 Length: 207.0 millimetre Width: 180. Using rhyming words the usage of the fish throughout the story helps young children with early literacy. This is great for children, who are familiar with and still learning about opposites, numbers, similarities, sizes differentiation. The size of the typography is on the large side but it very easy to read. The typography looks handwritten and not a computer font, which gives it a more friendly feeling. And the Montage of fishes was an excellent over view of what fishes were mentioned as Little Fish friends. The double page spread really captures all the different fishes and the medium with the vibrant colors with the black borders help separate all the different fishes. The book is fairly large but the inside makes up for that because the illustrations are just amazing. But Little Fish favorite fish is introduced in the end of the story, can you guess who this special fish could be? Little Fish friends are all different, colors, shapes, appearances, sizes and there are some friends that are the same. Cousinss exuberant illustrations bring new meaning to the old saying, 'plenty of fish in the sea. In this story Little Fish takes you along to meet all his friends.
