Swimmy -- Frederick -- Fish is fish -- It's mine -- Cornelius.

Swimmy meets a group of small fish who are scared to swim in the ocean. (1st work) While other mice are gathering food for the winter, Frederick sits on the stone wall. When the dreary weather comes and the food runs out, it's Frederick who saves the day. (2nd work) When Fish's friend, the tadpole, becomes a frog and leaves the pond to explore, Fish decides that maybe he doesn't have to remain in the pond either. (3rd work) Three selfish frogs bicker all day long. But a bad storm and a big brown toad help them realize that sharing is much more fun. (4th work) Unlike other crocodiles, Cornelius walks upright, does tricks, and sees things no other crocodile can. (5th work)

Caldecott Honor book, 1964 (Swimmy)
