The Squid Kids tells the early experiences of Suzy and Sammy Squid as they learn a variety of survival skills: catching small fish for food, skimming over the wateras surface, and eluding large predators using a jet of dark ink. As brother and sister learn from each other, the underlying message becomes clear: aGive a man a fish; you have fed him for today. Teach a man to fish and you have fed him for a lifetime.a For ages four and up, and maybe for precocious three-year-olds.
