Imagine you are on a beach. The waves 

crash on the shore. Seagulls squawk in the 

sky above your head. Far off in the distance 

you hear the sound of a huge ship honking 

his horn. 

Have you ever wondered what is happening beneath 

the waves? There is another world down there. In 

fact, it is not much different than the world we know.

As you look beneath the waves you will find all types of 

new creatures. There are big fish and little fish. There 

are families and kids. All you have to do to find these 

things is look below the waves!

If you look all the way to the bottom of the 

ocean you will find sea creatures living just like 

people. Fish kids go to school. Moms and Dads 

have jobs. 

Sea creatures even have their own homes. 

Some homes are small, but others are big. All 

the fish that live at the bottom of the ocean are 

friends. They look out for each other and help to 

take care of one another.

Not everyone lives in the same part of the ocean. Some 

creatures live in reefs. Others live in the sandy shallows. Still 

others live in the depths of the ocean. That is where Gonzo 

first lived. Gonzo is a seahorse. He was born in the depths of 

the ocean and lived there with his mom and dad. 

One day Gonzo’s mom and dad, Millie and Bert, decided it 

was time to move. They didn’t really have friends in the 

depths. The sharks were moving in and their fish friends 

were moving out. So Gonzo’s mom and dad moved the 

whole family to the sandy shallows. 

They knew there would be lots of nice 

homes and there were lots of other 

families with young kids close to Gonzo’s 

age. Gonzo’s parents thought this would 

be best for their little family. 

“Imagine all the friends Gonzo will have,” 

said Gonzo’s dad, Bert, as they made their 

journey. Gonzo’s mom, Millie, was excited 

about finding a new home and having 

friends over for dinner. 

But when Gonzo and his family arrived in the sandy 

shallows, they realized things were not quite how they 

imagined they would be. Millie and Bert had a hard time 

finding a new home. 

All the houses are much more expensive in the sandy 

shallows because it’s a popular place to live. When they 

finally found a house they could afford, it was much 

smaller than their neighbors’ homes. They were also 

very far away from everyone else.
