    About this ebook

    Death never takes a day off. Until he gets a letter from the HR department insisting he use up his accrued vacation time, that is. In this humorous and heartfelt book from beloved illustrator Brian Rea, readers take a peek at Death's journal entries as he documents his mandatory sabbatical in the world of the living. From sky diving to online dating, Death is determined to try it all! Death Wins a Goldfish is an important reminder to the overstressed, overworked, and overwhelmed that everyone—even Death—deserves a break once in a while.

      I'm a sucker for an anthropomorphic representation of death in any story, and Death Wins a Goldfish is no exception. This was a delightful treat of a picture book.

      It is not what I expected. I think it’s was a great opportunity that wasn’t taken advantage of.
