As central Christian symbols, "water" and "fish" form the common thread of the narratives. The fish Ichthys takes the person being baptized on a journey through the world of the Bible. Together they witness the creation of the world, accompany Noah, Moses, and Jonah in their experiences, and first encounter Jesus at his baptism by John.

Told in a very child-friendly way and illustrated with particularly imaginative illustrations, "How lucky I am to have you" is a wonderful "book for getting to know Jesus".
