Little fish Tiddler has a big imagination. His teacher is annoyed by his sto ries explaining his tardiness. His classmates don’t believe him either, except for Little Johnny Dory, who tells the stories to his granny. One day, Tiddler is swept up by a net and gets lost in the ocean. He overhears one of his stories and traces it from one sea creature to another until he is back home. The vibrant undersea illustrations and snappy rhyme are the creation of the team behind the award-winning The Gruffalo (1999) . mjw
