Prince and Pirate

Illustrated by Mike Lowery
When two little fish with big personalities have to share the same tank, there are rough seas ahead!

Prince and Pirate are proud masters of their very own fishbowls, and life goes along swimmingly—until they’re scooped up and plopped into shared waters.

Prince is horrified to find this cheeky cod trespassing in his kingdom.
 
Pirate is sure this scurvy sea slug has come to plunder his treasure.
 
Thus, a battle of regal sneers, seaworthy stink-eyes, and off-the-hook insults begins. 
Prince and Pirate’s hilarious duel for territory will elicit gales of giggles, hearty guffaws, and heartfelt smiles. Just when it seems their struggle might end in a silly stalemate, a little surprise convinces them to find a way to get along—swimmingly.
