In this nearly wordless offering, a garbage pile at ocean's bottom grows as pages are turned; concurrently, fish become worrisomely smaller in number. The resolution is clever, funny, and volumes-speaking, and the collected fish--each distinct in size, shape, and texture--dazzle the eye. Bonus: readers can hunt for a starfish, a jellyfish, and a clownfish in every spread.
