"The off-the-cuff yet kidlike prose ideally suits the bright, crisp digital drawings. . . . Readers will cheer the birth of a beautiful friendship." -- Publishers Weekly

Norman, el pececito dorado, no era precisamente lo que este niño esperaba. Él quería una mascota diferente, una que pudiera correr y jugar, trepar a los árboles y correr detrás de cosas divertidas; una mascota suave y peluda que pudiera dormir junto a él en su cama. No a Norman.
Pero cuando decide cambiarlo por otra mejor, se da cuenta de algo: ¿será que Norman es mejor compañero de lo que él había pensado?


Norman the goldfish isn't what this little boy had in mind. He wanted a different kind of pet--one that could run and catch, a soft, furry pet to sleep on his bed at night. Definitely not Norman. But when he tries to trade Norman for a "good pet," things don't go as he planned. With wry humor and lighthearted affection, author Kelly Bennett and illustrator Noah Z. Jones tell an unexpected--and positively fishy--tale about finding the good in something you didn't know you wanted. Now in Spanish!
