Not Norman: A Goldfish Story Kelly Bennett Reprint edition

"A sweet story that could be used as a springboard to discussion of the pitfalls of making snap judgments about pets ? or people." ? SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL

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, or chase string and climb trees, 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. Could it be that Norman is a better pet than he thought? 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.
