Fishtastic! — Tess Weaver

All the trout at the Fishtastic Theater School can breathe out of water—except for Etta, the school’s costume designer. No matter how hard she tries, Etta can’t unlock her Fishtastic magic. When the theater troupe swims down the Iowa River to perform at Iowa City’s Hancher Auditorium, Etta discovers something very important that they’ve left behind. Can Etta save the show even though she’s not magical? Inspired by the fish sculptures installed along the walkways welcoming visitors to Hancher, Fishtastic! is a delightful blend of lovable characters and whimsical watercolor illustrations that celebrate the joy of discovering your own path to enchantment.
