Praise for this book

"The newest Pout-Pout Fish installment follows Mr. Fish and fellow team members through a soccer match and eventual discovery that winning isn't everything--being a good sport is even more important... The artwork is bright and colorful, featuring many different aquatic creatures whose expressions match their feelings... this a good choice for beginning -readers." --School Library Journal
