Reviews for A Fishboy Named Sashimi

""From the mega-talented Dan Santat comes a hilarious and beautifully illustrated tale of friendship, adventure and mystery. Sashimi is FRESH!!!"" -Dav Pilkey, creator of Dogman and Captain Underpants ""Your kids? They will love it. Adults everywhere? They'll steal it when their kids are asleep to read it themselves. People, it is just. That. Good."" -Betsy Bird, Evanston Public Library ★ ""Santat is a master, with a wide variety of titles to his name, and this latest madcap adventure shows off the uproarious side of his decades of skill and talent. Dog Man fans looking for their next favorite series will line up for this."" -Booklist, starred review ★ ""Slapstick adventure, middle school hijinks, and churlish humor drip from this literal fish-out-of-water tale by Santat (Thick as Thieves).... [A] laugh-out-loud graphic novel series opener, which features a steady stream of jokes and bitingly funny asides"" -Publishers Weekly, starred review ""Introducing a hero who's both relatable and ridiculous, this first in a new series promises more compelling adventures ahead... Silly yet sincere, a satisfying start to a serial story of self-discovery."" -Kirkus Also by Dan Santat: A First Time for Everything Winner of the National Book Award for Young People's Literature Six Starred Reviews After the Fall An NPR Best Book of the Year Five Starred Reviews
