Recommendations for a picture book about fish?

18 month old DD loves books and is currently obsessed with fish, so we thought we'd spend some of her Christmas money on a new story. We already have Barry The Fish With Fingers, but any others starring (or heavily featuring) fish would be good.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Max the Minnow is great. It has big googly eyes. I liked the story too - which is more than I can say for most children's books.

Yes to Hooray for Fish, my DD loves this.

Tiddler as pp said. It's a huge hit in our family.

Fidgety Fish, can't remember the author. I don't care for it, the ending bothers me. But there are fish.

Hooray For Fish, you can get a version with a DVD as well.

Hooray for Fish by Lucy Cousins (who does Maisy too). Perfect for that age.

The Fish who could Wish.

I don't much like it but DS does!

There is also an Usborne book called Under the Sea and the Octonaut books of course Smile

Secret Seahorse is a sort of poem but full of pictures of fish. Can't remember who wrote it but it's published by Barefoot Books and is beautiful to look at
