Description
'Puffy the Pufferfish – A Rhyming Tale of Pride, Puff and Pop!' is a wildly funny and delightfully illustrated children’s book that dives deep into the shimmering blue sea and resurfaces with an unforgettable lesson in humility and self-control.
Meet Puffy, a loud, proud pufferfish with a legendary gift: he can inflate himself to enormous proportions—so big, he claims, that he’s practically the size of a whale! His fins flash, his chest puffs, and his ego swells… but when one skeptical cod dares him to prove it, Puffy takes things one puff too far.
Told in bouncy, rhyming verse that’s perfect for reading aloud, this undersea adventure bubbles with humor, heart, and a cautionary tale as timeless as the tides. Children will be giggling at the goofy antics and surprised by the twist ending—all while absorbing a gentle moral about modesty, pride, and knowing your limits.
With lush watercolor-style illustrations and a lovable cast of marine misfits—from the doubting Cillian Cod to crowds of curious reef creatures—this tale makes a splash for ages 3 to 8. Whether you're cuddled up at bedtime, reading aloud in class, or exploring the wonders of ocean life, 'Puffy the Pufferfish' delivers a memorable message in a lighthearted, entertaining way.
