Gil the Goldfish lives in a fishbowl with 138 pebbles—he counts them every day—and a castle. It feels TOO CROWDED!

​When Gil leaves his bowl in search of open spaces, he finds a world full of many interesting… and loud… and possibly dangerous… creatures. It turns out that life outside the bowl might not be right for a fish. Thank goodness for Turtle, who comes to Gil's rescue!

Will Gil make peace with his home sweet home, and maybe even find room for a friend in the process?


​"The story is a satisfying balance of familiar and fresh, with an endearing protagonist and an especially timely message about isolation and connection... Utterly delightful." - Kirkus, STARRED REVIEW
