From the first page: "It stood by a mournful sea full of glumfish, which were so miserable to eat that they made people belch with melancholy even though the skies were blue."
I am reading this book with my student because I am tutoring him in the subject of creative writing. Haroun and the Sea of Stories is wildly playful yet tender with the medium of storytelling.
I am also reading this book with my student because he is beginning to learn the concepts of "metaphor" and "simile," and there are about three examples of each on every page.
