An adorable goldfish is feeling

Too Crowded

and goes on a journey to discover the world beyond his fishbowl...only to learn there's no place like home

A hilarious, heartwarming picture book with subtle lessons about the importance of sharing, home, and friendship. Gil the Goldfish lives in a fishbowl with 138 pebbles-he counts them every day-and a castle. It feels TOO CROWDED! When Gil leaves his bowl in search of open spaces, he finds a world full of many interesting...and loud ... and possibly dangerous creatures.

It turns out that life outside the bowl might not be right for a fish. Thank goodness for Turtle, a citizen of the not-so-great outdoors who comes to Gil's rescue! Will Gil make peace with his home sweet home, and maybe even find room for a friend in the process?

Reviews for Too Crowded

The story is a satisfying balance of familiar and fresh, with an endearing protagonist and an especially timely message about isolation and connection... Utterly delightful. - Kirkus Reviews, STARRED review I loved the illustrations in this story-bright, bold, and showed the hilarious expression of Gil on his adventures. I think children will enjoy seeing his new home choices and deciding for themselves if those choices would be right for Gil. - Youth Services Book Review
