Angler fish seem a bit old and popular now, but I'm sure this was at the top of the trend in 2022.   The underlying message about being yourself is really good.  I would love to read this to a room of teachers.  I do like the teacher in the book got a redemption.

There is a little boy in my daughter class obsessed with Angler Fish. He was sad the teacher didn’t have any books about them specifically. So when I saw this on the library shelf I knew I needed to check it out.  
Agatha struggles in school. She has no merit points and is devastated to learn she will be last to choose a fish for a school project. To her surprise, her favorite the angler is still free. Agatha gets to showcase her brilliance and knowledge in a unique way. 
Love the art. Love the unique character. Love the rhyming. Love all the fun facts squished into a fun story.

My heart was stolen by Agatha May and her love for the anglerfish. This picture book is a love letter to kids who struggle with fitting in, with hearts full of unique and quirky passions.
