A moving and stunningly original story of friendship and life after loss, from award-winning and much-loved author Alan Durant.
Dak's dad has been dead for seven days when suddenly he reappears. He's the same in almost every way, with one startling exception: Dad has turned into a clownfish, and now lives in a tank at their local aquarium. Dak is delighted by the news – he has Dad back, even if he isn't quite as he was before. Deciding to keep Dad's transformation a secret, Dak visits him at the aquarium as often as he can, and ends up spending so much time there that they offer him a job.
This is how he comes to meet Violet, the owner's prickly but kindhearted niece; when the aquarium is threatened with closure, the pair must work together to save it. For Dak, the stakes couldn't be higher … after all, if the aquarium shuts down, what will happen to the fish?
From award-winning author Alan Durant comes a surreal, poignant story about family bonds and loss. In parts wry, moving and undoubtedly strange, this beautifully crafted story will stay with you long after the final chapter.
