Turn little pouts into big smiles in this splashy adventure where Mr. Fish, the star of the New York Times bestselling The Pout-Pout Fish series, learns a bedtime routine that works for him.

Late one evening
in the inky ocean deep,
Mr. Fish blub-blubbed:
"Oh, I can't get to sleep!"

His mind was fizzy-busy,
and his fins were full of vim.
Though he wanted to be dozing,
there were zero Zs for him!

When the Pout-Pout Fish can't sleep, he asks his friends for advice. They're all sure they know what he should do--count sheep, use a pillow made of rocks, swim in circles--but nothing works. What to do when good advice isn't good for everyone? Little guppies will love this bedtime story about learning from experience and doing what's best for you!
