Derek

Derek is a delightful story about a very curious goldfish who has lots of questions about the world. It explores themes of loneliness and family that will resonate with children and parents alike.

Derek was a fish with many questions. Why is the universe round? Where do bubbles come from ? And why does food rain down from the sky? But there was one question that Derek asked himself more than any other: 'Why am I alone?'

Derek tried to find answers to his questions. He tried to talk to a shell, but they didn't have much to say. He tried to speak with a rock, but it didn't do anything at all. He tried to contact the big creatures beyond the edge of the universe, but he couldn't reach them at all.

Derek's questions grew bigger and bigger until one day he took a leap of faith and travelled beyond his universe. Perfect for readers aged 3 to 6.
