The Adventures of Reece & Rusty - The Fish Wish is a charming story about friendship, responsibility, and inspiration, with a magical touch that will leave all readers highly entertained. The Fish Wish, the first adventure in the series, introduces the reader to the Spellmans, a lovable, seemingly ordinary family who are anxiously anticipating a momentous event in their child's life. Reece Spellman, who just turned seven, finally convinces his parents to get him a pet, but he is not very happy with their choice. Reece's mother tells him, "If you can take care of this fish and show the proper responsibility, you will get a larger pet in the near future." Little did she know how prophetic those words would soon become.
Reece Spellman's new best friend, a pet fish, begins to stare at the outside world from his fish tank with a look of despair. The external forces of a glass wall and water that separate their two very different worlds begin to impede the progression of their relationship, but that is about to be changed forever by a seemingly innocent childhood WISH. Was it MAGIC? Or, was it just pure COINCIDENCE?

From George Paul the Author: "The main reason I wrote this story was to express to children that they should never give up on their wishes and dreams, and to relish the journey of achieving them. Furthermore, as a parent myself, I know that there is nothing more gratifying than to see your child show responsibility, kindness, and demonstrate moral values. The Adventures of Reece & Rusty embraces this theme along with common life experiences and events intertwined with magical and humoristic overtones with a puzzle-solving learning component."
