>"A sweet story that could be used as a

>
>This little boy wanted a certain kind of pet - 
>one that could run and catch, or chase string, 
>or climb trees, a soft furry pet to sleep on his 
>bed at night. Definitely not Norman the 
>goldfish! But when he tries to trade Norman for 
>a "good pet," things don't go as planned: After 
>cleaning Norman's bowl, rescuing him from 
>puppies, and noticing that Norman listens to him 
>talk and even quiets his fear of night noises, 
>he realizes that there is no pet he would rather 
>have. With wry humor and lighthearted affection, 
>this sweet, unexpected fish tale is about 
>finding the good in something you didn't know you wanted.
