Octonauts & the Frown Fish, The by Meomi; 2008. Hardcover. (CH-PIC)

The books that launched the hit cartoon! In this third Octonauts storybook, the crew meets a fish with a giant frown on his face. He looks so glum that he's causing everyone around him to feel down also. Our heroes need to find a way to cheer him up! The Octonauts try music-making, field trips, miniature golf, and even a baking marathon, but can they make their new friend smile? In The Octonauts and the Frown Fish by Meomi, the underwater crew use activities such as a baking marathon to entice their new friend to smile. The Octonauts are a crew of eight adorable undersea explorers. The Octonauts are determined to cheer the fish up. This book elicited the aww, that’s cute’ reaction many times. The artwork is so adorable, and the story is simple but sweet. I hope the Frown Fish becomes a recurring character. I don’t know if I’d describe this as a children’s book because adults can enjoy it as well. The artwork alone is worth the price of the book. I would recommend it for anyone with kids or anyone who is a kid at heart.” - Supah Cute
