Flookie, The Fish Who Wouldn't Be Caught

George Green has written a number of children's books, all of which have character-building messages for young children. This story is about Flookie, a fish who learned the hard way! He found himself hooked by a fisherman, but fought as hard as he could to free himself. He got to live out the rest of his life in his home, the Kelp Forest, and knew the mistake he had made. Feeling it was his responsibility to tell all the other fish how not to get caught, he opened his own Fish School. One day, while teaching the students how to stay together and watch out for lines and hooks, a naughty fish, Sparky, decided he could handle anything; he didn't need to listen to Flookie. But poor Sparky was wrong! Flookie's story is one that will inspire youngsters to listen to elders who teach them how to live life safely, and how to stay out of trouble. After all, most times, teachers and parents really do know best.
