Item Summary

A nasty crucian carp makes life unpleasant for his fellow sea creatures, who complain to a whale. The whale sends several envoys to summon the carp, but the carp feigns deafness and ignores them. The whale goes to find the carp himself, setting off a chain of ocean movements that propel the carp into a fishing net, and his ultimate capture.
