From the Publisher
Lucy Cousins makes a big splash in this colorful read-aloud! Paddle along with Little Fish on a mesmerizing underwater tour of friends spotty and stripy, happy and gripy, hairy and scary, even curly whirly and twisty twirly. From the creator of Maisy comes an eyepopping picture book that is sure to have little ones joining the chorus: Hooray for fish!
Revel in all things fishy in this undersea riot of color and rhyme -- an oversize read-aloud from picture book artist Lucy Cousins.
Child Magazine
Take an undersea tour with Little Fish as he introduces your child to a bounty of his "fishy friends." Cousins, author of the popular Maisy books, makes each oversize page a feast for the eyes with whimsical, neon-colored creatures. One has markings that look like puffy white clouds (a "sky fish"), and another sports a trunk, tusks, and flappy ears ("Hello, ele-fish"). But Little Fish saves his most beloved fish friend for last: his mom, with whom he shares a big kiss ("Kiss, kiss, kiss, hooray for fish!").

Publishers Weekly
Anyone who thought Cousins's Maisy was the ne plus ultra of cute had better make room for Little Fish, her latest star. Yes, he's diminutive (made to seem more so in this oversize volume), but the hero, whose orange, yellow and teal coloring brings to mind a particularly luscious frozen confection, is no chicken of the sea. However much bigger, fatter, flamboyant or even grumpier the other fish may be, Little Fish always offers up a friendly greeting: "Hello, spotty fish, stripy fish, happy fish, gripy fish," says Little Fish, flashing his bright eyes and smiling to the finny passersby (the text is set in the author's signature black, boldly roughhewn typography). Cousins's exuberant illustrations bring new meaning to the old saying, "plenty of fish in the sea." She packs her saturated, neon-hued pages with an undersea menagerie that includes a huge school of tiny minnow-esque fish and a comically preposterous "ele-fish," complete with trunk. Just when readers think there aren't any more fish to meet, Little Fish introduces the "one I love best, even more than all the rest"-his Mom. "Kiss, kiss, kiss," proclaims the text as the two pucker up. "Hooray for fish!" A book that's certain to make an impressive splash, whether read to one youngster or an entire storytime circle.
Children's Literature
Little Fish takes his readers through the ocean to meet all of his fish friends. His friends are different shapes, sizes, colors, and personalities. The illustrations are large and bold with one or two fish on each page. The text is fast and fun to read, rhyming in parts, with only a few words per page, and written as large as the illustrated fish. Children are asked to count the fish they see on one page, and will be eager to see what kind of fish will greet them on the next page. They will meet stripey fish, gripey fish, scary fish, and hairy fish, as well as dozens more. Children will be able to identify colors and use their counting skills throughout the pages. At the end, readers meet the most important fish at all, the Mom fish. This book will make a great contribution to a preschooler's library, fun for both the reader and the listener.
School Library Journal
Cousins takes youngsters on an excursion to the bottom of the ocean where cheerful Little Fish greets a wide variety of friends. Playful rhymes such as "Hello spotty fish,/stripy fish,/happy fish,/gripy fish" add to the merriment. Finally, Little Fish meets none other than his own mother with "Kiss, kiss, kiss,/hooray for fish!" The various creatures include fish with numbers for gills and with strange shapes and sizes. The deep blue backgrounds change hue throughout the pages much as the sea changes colors at different depths and climates. Team this appealing oversize book with Dr. Seuss's One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish (Random, 1960), Robert Kalan's Blue Sea (HarperCollins, 1992), and Nancy Van Laan's Little Fish, Lost (S & S, 1998) for a swimming good time.
Kirkus Reviews
Fish sporting bright colors and broadly brushed patterns flash across solid blue color fields, as Little Fish introduces finny friends, from "spotty fish, stripy fish, happy fish, gripy fish," to "eye fish, shy fish, fly fish, sky fish." Cousins slips in several opportunities for counting, along with all the color and pattern recognition practice, and has Little Fish close on an intimate note, with "the one I love the best," his mom, coming in for a smooch. Preschoolers will happily dive into this oversized cousin to Lois Ehlert's Fish Eyes (1990), and Cousins' own Maisy's Rainbow Dream.
