A thrill story for my baby

I bought this book for my son (3 years). He was thrilled by the sequence of the story. The colors are wonderful, the pictures are large and the book was succesful in attracting the attention of my son right till the end. If you don't want your kid to ask you to read a story over and over in the same day, then don't buy this book;)

Cynthia is a little girl who is a pony lover. All she really wants for her birthday is a pony. She gets a goldfish from her parents instead. She is a little upset. Cynthia talksto the fish about her feeling. He tells her that he's a magic fish and all she had to do it take him to the lake and set him free. When she does he said her wish will come true. She puts him in the stroller and sets off for the lake. She wished for a pony. While on the way to the lake she gets to know the fish better and start to really like him. She decides to keep the fish for her pet! What did you like or not like about the book? This book is by the creator of the Nick Jr show Oswald. The pictures are done in the same style as the tv show.
