Illus. in color. "Comic pictures show how the fish rapidly outgrows its bowl, a vase, a cook pot, a bathtub."--The New York Times.  

A Fish Out of Water is a 1961 children's book written by Helen Palmer Geisel and illustrated by P. D. Eastman, published in the Beginner Books line from Random House. Its story grew out of "Gustav, the Goldfish," a short story by Palmer's husband, Theodor Geisel, better known as Dr. Seuss, which ran with his own illustrations in Redbook magazine in June 1950.

A boy, a pet goldfish and a growing problem add up to a funny read with easy words, a good pick for children who are just beginning to read on their own. This edition is a hardcover.
