This mischievous, heartwarming tale has become an international bestseller and an instant classic!

Everyone tells Bum Fish that his face looks like a bum.

It does, but he can't help it.

Sick of being the butt of the joke, Bum Fish goes on an adventure to the bottom of the sea, where he meets a fish even more unusual than he is...

Praise for Bum Fish:

'A story overflowing with humour, a marvellous ode to difference, unconventional beauty and friendship' Le Parisien
