About The Book
When a playful pufferfish’s actions cause a snowball effect disrupting the peace of the other sea creatures, it’s up to the ocean and a baby whale to restore quiet once more in this “amusing and appealing” (School Library Journal, starred review) picture book companion to The Quiet Forest.
Deep beneath the waves, a pufferfish putters alone. A playful puffer in a quiet, nothing-much-happening ocean. Until…one small pop! sets off a chain of outrageous events, causing the whole ocean to have a very frazzled day indeed!
Can the sea creatures find a way to bring quiet back to their underwater home?
