The Generous Fish by Jacqueline Jules

Through a unique friendship between a boy and a magic fish, award-winning author Jacqueline Jules weaves an environmental fable that’s ideal for sparking meaningful conversations at home or in the classroom. Inspired by Jewish folklore, this story is rooted in the verse “Cast your bread upon the waters” (Ecclesiastes 11:1)—and brings it to life in a whimsical yet thoughtful way.
