I've been looking forward to reading The Magic Fish for a looong time. Not surprising at all is the gorgeous artwork. I've always been a fan of Trungles' flowy, elegant lines and each page is breathtaking. I enjoyed the pacing and thought it was creative how the fairy tales are interwoven with Tien and Helen's stories. It's a very emotional book and I cried (twice). I highly recommend.
