Corporate Fish and the Green Goo - Xanthos Likes

. .

Résumé :
Everything is normal in the office until a mysterious green goo from the lab on the 3rd-floor oozes into the corporate office fish tank. Suddenly, the fish are super smart and very demanding. In fact, the fish have taken over the office and threatened poor Jason Mason with war. Over what? You ask. DIET FISH FOOD! Follow corporate office worker, Jason Mason, on his hilarious three-week adventure as he deals with smart fish and their pet shark. Dear Mr. Graph, It's confirmed: the fish have been traveling outside of their tank. Returning them is a chore. They claim they need to explore the world around them to better understand it. I tried reasoning with them by telling them their so-called explorations are fruitless and that they should really stay in their tank despite their new vehicles. I stacked some heavy phone books on top of the tank as soon as I collected all the escapees. I don't know how you manage to get any actual work done! Sincerely, Jason Mason Targeted for children ages 8-10, this book is sure to bring a smile to the face of any builder, problem solver, and fish lover.
