The Pout Pout Fish By: Deborah L. Diesen

The pout pout fish is a sad fish with pouty lips. All of his ocean friends come up to him and try to get him to cheer up. (Squid, octopus, a clam and more) He refuses. He believes he only knows how to frown. He can't go and play because he has to frown. His job is to spread his dreary wearies all over the place and blub. One day a beautiful sparkling fish swam up to him and kissed him! He realized he is not a pout pout fish, he is a kiss kiss fish! So he goes around to all of his friends and gives them kisses.
