I love books that not only make the students laugh, but make me laugh too! Don't Trust Fish is one of those books.
This book starts on a serious note, providing information about reptiles and birds, but quickly begins an absurd journey about fish planning for our doom. For example, it questions what are fish learning in schools and a reminder that they are already in our homes, watching us.
This is a wonder read-aloud with the repetition of the refrain, "Don't Trust Fish." The book surprises us with a little learning, (student will build new vocabulary, such as bioluminescence) and a lot of laughter.
