Who says you have to leave the city to go on vacation? Goldfish on Vacation by Sally Lloyd Jones is a humorous book, based on a true story, about a grandpa who took a New York City fountain and turned it into a summer goldfish vacation pond. This story describes the fun and joy of three city kids, their three bowl bound goldfish, and how the fountain brought a community together. Try these activities after you are done reading! 1. Design an engaging aquarium for your goldfish that will be better than a plain bowl. 2. Where would your pet like to go on vacation? Create a plan for places that a pet could enjoy. 3. Create a model of a goldfish or other fish that you like using recyclables. Be sure to create fins, gills, eyes, and a mouth.
