Fodo Dodo Goes Fishing
by Edouard Manceau
Age Range: Under_5
Fodo Dodo and Noodle are going fishing but this is no ordinary fishing trip. They take everything they need – their raincoats, boots, hats and a fishing rod and set off. From their bathtub boat, it isn’t long before they catch a beautiful stripy ‘underguppy’ fish out of the laundry basket. Heading to the kitchen they intend to cook their catch but the owner of the laundry item is far from happy with their imaginary game. Never mind, because Fodo Dodo has an even whackier idea to keep the fun alive.
French author and illustrator Édouard Manceau has published over 100 books for children and won several prizes. Here he has created a hilarious story of make-believe, translated by Daniel Hahn. Fodo Dodo and Noodle’s extensive imagination of their fishing expedition hooks up an unlikely catch. This lively, funny story will have children giggling at their naughty antics.
