A sleepless Mr. Fish takes various underwater friends' (at times zany) advice for falling asleep but manages to catch a few winks only after listening to Miss Shimmer's entreaty to "trust yourself as a guide." Like the other Pout-Pout books, this one is a coping manual doubling as a picture book fueled by airtight rhymes and clever illustrations featuring a cast of Muppet-like sea creatures.
