The story begins on a dry Botswana day when young Gugu, a giraffe, announces he wants to go fishing.

He wants to know, "What is a fish?"

Matriarch Chidinma of the nearby elephant herd allows Gugu to join her parade lumbering to the Okavango River.

There, Gugu can board a mokoro tourist boat to see about fishing.

Adventure awaits Gugu as the matriarch elephant, a crocodile, a hippopotamus, and a cormorant explain why they could not possibly be a fish!
