THE FISH CHEF

FINN THE FISH, follows the story of a little Pufferfish with big dreams of becoming a chef. His parents disapprove of this but little Finnian is determined to follow his dreams. He secretly gathers his knowledge through old magazines that humans discard into the ocean and with the help of a few friends, he teaches himself how to cook. Finn uses his skills as he matures as a cook to help feed those around him and helps to educate the fish folk in his small town about the wonderful possibilities of food. While changing the perceptions of those in his village, what Finn longs for the most is the approval of his parents. Will Finn's parents come around, and will Finn's cooking be enough to win their approval?
