From belly to fin, the scales on Filbert's tail demonstrate the long timeline of art history. From cave art to The Scream (and everything in between ), one thing is clear: Filbert has collected A LOT of art scales. The only problem? His tail is too heavy to do fancy swirls and twirls and flips like his friends. His friends include the music historian, Melody, and the flight expert, Avi. Join Filbert as he tries to solve his struggle in this colorful and silly underwater tale.
