This is my first book and I am not a professional writer or author of any other book. I am fond of writing stories sometimes. Just popped into my mind and said to myself and makes myself write freely about fish so I started to get a pen and write. I started to draw some fish pictures and to color it. My daughter then, she was 6 years old named Sasha, started helping me with coloring the pictures I've drawn. So we started doing the drawings and coloring and we ended up writing this story about fish. Now my daughter is 8 years old and I hope kids will enjoy reading the book.
