Hello, my name's Martin. This is a story that takes place under water, in the ocean. It's about a little fish who is always telling stories about himself. On the right there's a much bigger picture. It's above the surface of the sea. It shows a red, white and blue fishing boat with four sailors on board. Seagulls are bobbing or flying around the boat. There’s a blue sky and the sea is calm, but rain has begun to fall on the right-hand side. There are some grey clouds drifting there too. The boat is about to sail into bad weather. The big picture on the right hand page. It shows the fishing boat, but this time it's in a rainstorm. The sky is blanketed in grey clouds and down below the sea is dark blue and the waves are choppy and tipped with white foam. Four seagulls are fluttering in the sky, up above the boat. They're probably hoping to snatch a fishy snack when the net is finally hauled up. Oh dear, poor Tiddler.
