What if a fish could teach us how to say goodbye?
Roy the Koi: The Fish Who Lived Forever is a tender, all-ages picture book that helps children-and the adults who love them-navigate the journey of love, loss, and healing through the timeless power of story.
In this beautifully illustrated tale inspired by a real koi, Roy brings joy, magic, and comfort to everyone who visits his peaceful pond. As he swims beneath the surface, he becomes more than a fish-he becomes a friend, a symbol of hope, and a keeper of wishes. But one day, Roy stopped swimming, and the pond grew still.
Told through the eyes of a boy who grew up with Roy, this story gently guides readers-young and old-through the joy of emotional connection, the sadness of saying goodbye, and the healing that comes when we share memories out loud.
