Shortlisted for the 2021 CBCA Book of The Year: Early Childhood.
A funny tale of mishap, misunderstanding, and the search for true friendship in an ocean rockpool.
All Anemone wants is a friend, but friends are hard to make when you accidentally sting everyone who comes near you.
Perhaps Clownfish has a solution to the problem . . .
‘This fun and funny picture book tells the story of Anemone who lives in a rock pool and desperately wants a friend … The digitally produced illustrations add so much to this title, from the eye catching neon pink used for the title, endpapers, and titular character to the simple yet sweetly drawn and coloured sea horse, starfish, and sea cucumber … I would highly recommend Anemone is not the Enemy for young readers especially those interested in the natural world.’
