The story also known as "The Fisherman and the Golden Fish" (possibly first told in Russia, but known throughout Europe), written and illustrated for the modern young reader. With 6 fun quizzes in the end to confirm reading and picture-viewing with comprehension.
We loved the stars and sparkles around the Wish Fish!

The greedy part of human nature

Colorful pictures detail better than words that do make old folk tale fresh. Life is seldom fair.
