I liked [FISH TANK] ALOT. One of the things I saw was the school culture that exists both at the middle school and the high schoolthe bully behaviorthe trust issuesthe respect that is given and missing. It was all there.  And on another level, I could see the whole creation, God care, expectation, loss and recovery. It would make a great book club read! Thanks for offering so many ways to reflect.  Nancy Jordheim, Assistant Superintendent, Fargo ND Public Schools

This story of life in the aquarium is eerily similar to contemporary events outside the tank.  FISH TANK is a good read, but more than that, it is a story about the forces of greed against the power of determination and collaboration.  Dr. Cathy Whitlock, Director of the Montana Institute on Ecosystems, Montana State University

Scott Bischke opens floodgates of feeling for humanity and other species in this important book.  Julia Olson, mother and Executive Director, Our Children's Trust
