"This irresistible book within a book introduces us to Blobfish, known as the ugliest fish in the sea...or is he actually the fish who will steal our hearts? Did you know that the deepest parts of the ocean are over one mile deeptoo far down for any sunlight to reach? Thats where Blobfish lives. But this book isnt about Blobfish...or is it? This true (clever) story about the (misunderstood) Blobfish is sure to make you smile. Full of fun facts about sea creatures in the deepest reaches of the ocean, this book is perfect for any science lover."--Publisher.

meh submitted by autumnmist on August 15, 2019, 6:20pm cute enough. My son enjoyed it
Good for one read submitted by FordAlpha on July 8, 2023, 10:07pm My kids enjoyed this book well enough on the first read-through but didn't ask for it again. The concept is good, but I found the execution a little bit lacking. It's tricky to read aloud this sort of book (with serious, informative bits interrupted by humorous commentary), and I had to work hard to make the humor click.
