WINNER OF THE QUEEN'S KNICKERS AWARD & THE CHILDREN'S BOOK AWARD FOR YOUNGER CHILDREN

A heartfelt and humorous adventure from the bottom of the sea and beyond, following one fish on an epic journey.

Deep, deep, deep under the sea … lives Blobfish! Blobfish loves telling jokes, although he has no one to share them with, so he sets off on an adventure to find a friend. But sometimes friends turn up in the most unexpected places, even at the bottom of the ocean. This heartfelt and humorous story gently introduces children to themes of friendship, belonging and the issue of plastics in our oceans.

Falafel has created a highly original introduction to environmental issues with a strong narrative about the search for friendshipFish it out, it’s blobby good. -- Alex O'Connell * The Times *
Heartfelt tale. * The Bookseller *
Part touching tribute to friendship and part raising awareness of pollution in our oceans, this was a gentle story and opens doors for further discussion and, possibly, action. * Just Imagine *
A fun and funny book with a great message of friendship, and a deeper environmental message weaved into it too. * The Strawberry Post *
