Azalea and the undersea rainbow - Claire Townsend

Résumé :
Azalea is bored of finding colors in her garden, so her moms suggest a trip out to sea to go on her first scuba diving adventure. Amongst the coral, she meets a little rainbow parrot fish who has heard all about her love of color and leads her through his home, the ocean.
