A Fish Called Goldie

Goldie loved her life with Mrs Tilley! The goldfish bowl was right near the window in the lounge room, and Goldie just smiled so much. She was so happy to be living there! Mrs Tilley was very kind. She gave her lots of tasty flakes to eat, rocks and reeds for Goldie to play around and put a cloth over her bowl at night to keep her warm. But one day an ambulance came and took Mrs Tilley away. Goldie was alone.

When Mrs Tilley’s son took Goldie to a pet shop to sell, Goldie wondered what would happen to her. Find out what happens to Goldie next. Do you think smiling would help Goldie find a new home?

Join Goldie to find out about staying positive.

With four children under five, living on a small farm near Melbourne, the author respected the need for their careful education and sensible discipline and told them stories, based on farm and wild animals, that would impart to them life lessons for their paths ahead!

With the passage of time, some twenty-five plus years, these stories have now been put down in writing and published for children everywhere who will face similar challenges and choices in their own lives that the author’s children successfully met in theirs.

This book is one of a series of books written to help children. Life lessons for kids. This particular one is us about trying to stay positive when things around you are difficult. It's a simple story about a smiling goldfish called Goldie who lives with an elderly lady.
One day the old lady has to go to the hospital for a while but tells Goldie to keep smiling no matter what.
The illustrations are charming and go well with the book.
