Caps hats socks and mittens:
What are some of the things that make winter different from spring? Or summer different from fall? In winter, children wear hats and mittens and ride red sleds down snowy hills. They drink hot chocolate from steaming mugs and at night they curl up in bed under a warm winter quilt. In spring, children watch as the grass gets cut and birds fly to their nests of eggs. They wear raincoats when it rains, and on sunny days enjoy picnics in the grass. Under the hot summer sun, children swim at the beach or in a lake. They play baseball and catch a jar full of fireflies. They race to be the first off the school bus in the fall. They see the frost on the grass before the sun is up and dress up for Halloween when the sun goes down.

An old fisherman lives in a hut by the sea with his wife and his dog. One day he reels in an enormous, golden fish that talks and claims to be magic. The old man lets the fish go, but his wife has other ideas. She orders her husband to go back and retrieve the fish - after all, we are talking about a magic fish - and asks him to have the fish grant a wish. The fish is only too happy to help out. He provides the fisherman and his wife with a new house, more money, and a bed for the fisherman's dog. But every wish the magic fish grants is only followed by an even more elaborate request from the fisherman's wife. And even a talking magic fish has his limits.

Winsley Pinney Pels adds to the magic of The Magic Fish with humorous illustrations of the kindly fisherman and the airs put on by his wife, and above all, the face of a fish that is baffled by people who just don't know when to say when.
