Synopsis

One goldfish has escaped from its fishbowl. Where did it go? It's hiding among the red polka dots on the curtain. Oh, it escaped again. This time it's pretending to be a red flower in a potted plant. Oh my, it's escaped yet again. Next to a toy rocket, among a pile of strawberries, in a candy jar... With each turn of the page, the escaped goldfish is hiding somewhere. This is a seek-and-find picture book that children love. Even little ones can point and have fun searching for the goldfish.
