Book Summary

​ Written in rhyme and beautifully illustrated, in the seas is where we find Flidgywumper, a little green fish who, shows young readers (and the adults in their lives) the scope of the plastic pollution problem and offers ideas on how to solve it. The book was written to entertain, while it educates, but most importantly to inspire all to care and act to bring about positive change.
