<p>Candace Fleming and illustrator Boris Kulikov pair up to tell a fun story about a real submarine inventor in<i> Papa's Mechanical Fish</i></p><p><i>Clink! Clankety-bang! Thump-whirr! </i>That's the sound of Papa at work. Although he is an inventor, he has never made anything that works perfectly, and that's because he hasn't yet found a truly fantastic idea. But when he takes his family fishing on Lake Michigan, his daughter Virena asks, "Have you ever wondered what it's like to be a fish?"―and Papa is off to his workshop. With a lot of persistence and a little bit of help, Papa―who is based on the real-life inventor Lodner Phillips―creates a submarine that can take his family for a trip to the bottom of Lake Michigan.</p>
