Sophie's Fish

Illustrated by Lee White
What naptime story would you read to a fish? When Sophie asks Jake to take care of her pet fish while she's on vacation, he says sure—how hard can it be to babysit a fish? But the minute he agrees, Jake starts imagining every possible fish-related crisis. What does a fish eat for dinner? How do you give him a bath? What kind of stories does he like? Pitch-perfect humor and wonderfully detailed, quirky illustrations make this a refreshingly funny and imaginative picture book.
A. E. Cannon, formerly a writer for the Deseret News, is a columnist for the Salt Lake Tribune and an author of many children's books. Some of her titles are Sophie's Fish, What's A Mother To Do?, On the Go with Pirate Pete and Pirate Joe, and the novel The Loser's Guide to Love and Life. Cannon teaches creative writing at King's English Bookshop in Salt Lake City and works with the Utah Humanities Council. She has five sons, two granddaughters, one husband, and a huge number of pets.
