Review by Publisher's Weekly Review
Leo Lionni's Fish Is Fish (1970) brings back the tale of a friendship between a tadpole and minnow, and the changes wrought when the now-fully-fledged frog tries to describe the wonders above ground to his finned friend. Lionni's palette, as iridescent as the scales of a minnow gleaming in the sun, is as captivating as ever. (c) Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved

Review by Horn Book Review
Two of Lionni's classic fables are reissued for young readers. The illustrations are fundamentally unchanged, but the easy-reader format demands a new layout. The now-leveled text is arranged across the top of each narrow page with art shoehorned below. Kids who aren't familiar with the more-expansive picture books may enjoy discovering Lionni's strong stories and imaginative art.
