He is driving his mom crazy, so she sends him out into the open sea to swim off some of his energy. While out there he sees many creatures and has lots of adventures. The artwork in this book is so colorful and silly it makes the book even more enjoyable. In my opinion this is a good book. I liked how the author’s language was patterned when describing Tiddler’s adventure through the sea. For example, Galloway wrote, “He wriggled and squiggled, he darted and giggled…He dived and he flipped, he leapt and he dipped.” I also liked the characterization in this story because Tiddler and his mother were believable characters. The mother was “fed up” with Tiddler so she told him to “go out into the sea and swim till you’re tired, but watch out for the Big Fish” Tiddler’s mom wanted to make sure he was safe while he was out which is believable because most mothers would do the same. Tiddler’s character was believable because he is young and didn’t listen to his mother. He swam right into the Big Fish’s mouth. This is realistic because many children are not as careful as they should be and don’t always listen to their parents. Overall, the big idea of this story is that you should listen to your parents. This is evident when Tiddler swims into the Big Fishes mouth and gets scared. His mother told him to be careful and to watch out for the fish, but he did not listen. no reviews | add a review
Sent out for a swim in the deep sea, Tiddler, a young fish who just can't keep still, sees many interesting creatures and one very dark cave. No library descriptions found. |
