Synopsis

From bestselling creators Jane Godwin and Terry Denton, Can You Teach a Fish to Climb a Tree? is a quirky and inspiring book about celebrating who YOU are and the power and peace to be found in not trying to be anyone else.

‘Everybody is a genius.<br /> But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree,<br /> it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid. <br /> – Albert Einstein (maybe)

So … can a fish climb a tree?<br /> Can a horse drive a car?<br /> Can a baby bake a cake?<br /> And if they can’t, what wonderful things can they do?

Can You Teach a Fish to Climb a Tree? is a celebration of uniqueness and individuality, based on the well-known Einstein quote.
