Thanks for the opportunity to read this book. I loved the illustration of the book, it was a cute and fun read.

Lively rhyming text and bold illustrations make A Bear, a Fish and a Fishy Wish by Daniel Bernstrom, illustrated by Brandon James Scott, a perfect choice for story tme. The story is perfect for reading aloud and boldly drawn illustrations will draw children in. I'm getting a copy. for my library.

This is a story of a bear trying so hard to catch a little teeny fish. In the end, the bear decides against feasting on the fish, let’s it go to find food elsewhere.

I was drawn to this book based on the cover illustration and title.

I really enjoyed the art style, the word placements and font! The water scenes with the fish are beautiful to look at. The story flows so well in this book so it’s an easy read to my baby girl!

This is a short book with a fun rhyming scheme. A hungry bear is looking for his next meal when a homesick fish leads him on
A different journey to find food.

What a glorious book - Berstrom and Scott have done it again! This is a great companion to A Bear, a Bee, and a Honey Tree. The bold illustrations and expressive characters are perfect for reading aloud or to enjoy on your own. A true showing that actions speak louder than words. I can’t wait to read this in story time – fun for all ages.

An absolutely delightful follow-up. Sweet in its own right! With spare text, the illustrations carry the reader through the twisty, turning river right up to the climactic moment when the bear decides what he will do with the fish. An unexpectedly thoughtful and funny ending.

This book made me smile and lightened my heart from beginning to end. Loved the illustrations and the kindness shown in this book. The bear and the fish are cute and have opposite agendas. I was blessed with a free ARC, and I am voluntarily leaving this review. Highly recommend.

A Bear, a Fish, and a Fishy Wish is an adorable picture book that I can see myself recommending to kids who love nature and animals. It is a sweet story of a hungry bear longing to eat a fish, and a small fish on a journey home.

Thank you NetGalley, Daniel Bernstrom and Brandon James Scott, and Astra Publishing House for the opportunity to read this book in exchange for my honest opinion.

This is a CUTE book. The illustrations are beautiful. The story is very short but the message of the story is one about kindness and awareness of others and looking past what you want in order to help others in need. I would definitely add this book to my preschool classroom library when we focus on the trees unit and also when focusing on social skills. I know my 3 year old daughter would love this book also!

This is the story of a hungry bear that wishes for fish, but the fish wishes to go home. Who will get their wish-the hungry bear or the homesick fish. Love the silly rhyming story with fabulous illustrations! A great follow-up to A Bear, A Bee and a Honey Tree. Children are going to love this one too!!

A perfect followup to A Bear, A Bee and a Honey Tree. Will Bear get the fish he wishes got?
A perfect read aloud! Children love and laugh during this story. I know it will be a story time hit
in the library.

My youngest and I highly enjoyed this book that follows a bear and his desire for something to eat and a fish who has a wish of his own. The illustrations were beautiful and the story fun and playful.

This book tells the story of a hungry bear seeking a fish and that fish who is trying to get home. The illustrations are very well done and I love the rhythm of the text to read aloud. The plot itself was not my favorite, but the characters were cute enough.

Thank you NetGalley and Astra Publishing House for this advanced copy. All opinions are my own.

I received an arc of this title from NetGalley for an honest review. A cute story with simple text and a simple story. Great for new readers who are using pictures to figure out words.

Cute little book about a hungry bear and his hunt for fish. Lots of good rhyme elements. Bears hunt is thwarted by his feelings, so he just might go hungry. Sweet.

This was sooooo cuuuuttteeeee!

I laughed out loud while reading this, which is not something that happens frequently with children’s books. Most often, I’m just looking for what the kids reading it are going to come away learning and how engaging the text and illustrations will be. I can count on one hand the children’s books that have left me feeling like <i>I,/i> personally just want to have it on my shelf for funsies.

<i>A Bear, a Fish, and a Fishy Wish</i> is now the fifth children’s book to fall into that category for me.

I have to say, I just <i>love</i> how well the text and artwork work together to tell a beautiful and brilliant story. This is one of those children’s books where you really cannot have one without the other. They compliment the story in tandem in such a way that taking out the illustrations or taking out the text completely removes an integral piece of your journey. This is also not something that happens super frequently with children’s books.

I have nothing but praise for this book. Even the brief moment I felt of acknowledging the lack of realism in the story—a bear has to eat, doesn’t he?—was perfectly resolved. And my goodness, how I <i>adored</i> that silent ending!

I highly recommend getting this book for your kiddo. I know I will!

Super cute story and illustrations. Could either be a cute, silly story about caring and animals or could be useful for teaching kids about salmon runs. My kids really liked it.
