Readers are asked: “Where’s the Starfish? Where’s the Jellyfish? Where’s the Clownfish?,” and are tasked with finding each on the following pages as the fish are slowly forced out of the spreads by more and more trash accumulating in the ocean. A whale, upset with all the junk, pushes it all back onto land and comes back to the ocean with a big grin on his face.
