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 Dog Man and Captain Underpants

He's funny. He's (too) friendly. He's... a fishboy named SASHIMI!

A new graphic novel series from bestseller and Caldecott Medal winner Dan Santat.

In the town of Barnacle Bay, a creature lurks. He's come from the ocean, in search of others like him.

To fit in with humans, Sashimi sneaks into an elementary school and pretends to be a student. But he's clearly a fish out of water!

When Sashimi finds out the whole town is on the hunt for the Beast of Barnacle Bay -- a creature who sounds a lot like Sashimi -- hijinks ensue! Fortunately, with the help of a new friend and the class goldfish, Sashimi figures out a way to stay afloat.

Perfect for fans of Bad Guys, Sharkdog, and The Investigator series!
