The Magic Coin

Once upon a time, in a village under the sea, sneaky Al Caponefish steals a quarter from Oyster’s shop.But when he gets worried he’ll be caught red-handed (or red-finned?), he convinces Gentleman Johnny the sea turtle that it's a magic quarter, worth well over twenty-five cents.On and on the cycle goes, with one fish pawning off a quarter on the next … until the simple, kind Goldfish discovers the perfect use for it: returning it (inadvertently) to its home.Marije Tolman’s (Little Fox, Quill the Forest Keeper) signature, vibrant, mixed-media risographs give life to award-winning author Daan Remmerts de Vries’s charming modern fable.
