Fun for two voices and I can imagine there may be Caldecott buzz around this title. Might be good to share with folks asking for books that discuss fighting between friends.

Fish and Snail live inside a book. When fish wants to venture outside his own book to find adventure elsewhere, Snail is having none of that. Fighting ensues and well, you'll just have to read the rest to find out the result.

I love the story, but I especially love the endearing illustrations and the unique perspective Freedman uses to show that Fish and snail are inside a book. Yet another Caldecott contender in my eyes.

About the only thing going for this one is the adorable art and the friendship theme. Otherwise, it's short and kind of empty.
