An excellent teaching tool for parents and teachers, the book opens up the communication lines, providing thought provoking discussion time with children.

The author and illustrator were victims of relentless bullying growing up. This book held dear to their hearts and felt it was necessary to get this positive message to every child. Unfortunately, the author, Sean never saw his dream of being a published author come true. In 2000, he was killed in a tragic car accident at the young age of 25. With the family's permission, the illustrator then took it upon herself to make his dream a reality and self-published Timmy the Fish in 2007 and again in 2012. Paperback and ebook editions are available at most online retailers.
