In Clara and Asha -- as in Eric Rohmann's Caldecott Medal-winning My Friend Rabbit--a simple storyline becomes the basis for fun and sophistication. Clara's friend Asha is an enormous fish, which means that hide-and-seek, Halloween, snow days, and afternoons in the park offer surprising opportunities for adventure. With oil paintings that playfully suggest stories within stories and convey great emotional range, this is a captivating book about the special world of a child's imagination--where a giant fish might come to visit, and the things you do and the things you fell with an imaginary friend are intensely real.

埃里克·罗曼延续了《我的兔子朋友》（该书荣获凯迪克奖）的风格，情节简单却趣味十足，意蕴丰富。克拉拉的朋友阿莎是一条巨大的鱼，捉迷藏游戏、万圣节、下雪天，以及公园的下午都成了她们冒险的好机会。在油画中，作者玩笑般暗示着一环套一环的故事，同时表达了丰富的情感，这是一本魅力无穷的书，展示了孩子们独特的想象世界——那里可能会有巨鱼，而且，你所做的事情和你的感觉都非常真实。
