Review of 'The day I swapped my dad for two goldfish' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

A nice experiment on expanding imagination somehow felt like reading Dr. Seuss' "And to think that I saw it on Mulberry Street". The illustration is superb, though. Unusual, witty, give more depth to the story as it is unfolding.

The structure give ideas that a simple utterance can be given life in a full story. No need to be complex but keep walking on the simple inner logic can make the story quite interesting and capturing attention as reader wondering how would it reach the end.
