When Little Fish jumps into Rosa's lap, a previously boring day becomes extraordinary. Rosa takes him home and hastily prepares delicious foods (cassava cake, tortillas) for the hungry fish, which grows at an astronomical rate. The story line is slight, but the illustrations, in blues, greens, and yellows, capture the textures and flavors of a small seaside village.
