When three small perch siblings - Sarai, Sesom, and RaaOn -
are separated from their parents, they face danger at every
turn. They safely reach the Turtle Pool only to face a tricky eel
in a dark tunnel and, later, a pack of Great Whites at the Big
Blue.
It's only by putting their trust in the Finmaker and calling on his
help that they are rescued in the end by the actions of the Fire
Fish.
Although children with a Christian background will easily
recognize the parable of the story - the Finmaker as God, the
Fire Fish as angels, and the deliverance in the Big Blue as the
parting of the Red Sea - it's not necessary to enjoy this
wonderful story.
And the story is wonderful - but it's not the best part. Davy Liu's
full-color illustrations are amazing. Spectacular color, intriguing
details, and wondrous visuals make FIRE FISH come to life and
only add strength to the message of the story.
This is the perfect book for a bedtime story, for a lesson on
putting your faith in God's hands, or just as a reassurance to
any young child that someone is always there, watching over
them to keep them safe.
