Read to my son. Short and funny. A little ominous at the end. What happened to the little fish?
My toddler interpreted the big fish to be the "mama fish," so we didn't delve into the plot too much. More fun from an adult, or maybe older kid, perspective.

A small fish steals a hat from a much larger fish, but as he swims away he convinces himself that it will be just fine. This caper is pure naughty fun, as the onlooker can see that the small fish is in deeper trouble than he realizes. I can imagine kids reading this and getting really excitable as they yell out warnings to the small fish or laugh as they delight in knowing that the statements small fish makes are not true.
Love love love how the narrative and the pictures tell two different stories. What are we thinking about the end? Is there a team crab for the folks who believe in self-preservation when the big fish is on the prowl?

Adding this book because I’ve now read it twice this year. First stumbled on it waiting in line at a cafe and it caught me so off guard with the humor. It’s a little left to interpretation at the end and I guess you can say the ending is dark? But I literally cackled both times reading it through.
