  • STACEY BISHOP DAVIDSON - 15 Fishes
    Jun 19 2025

    Imagine starting your day just like you do every day, expecting to see the same old things. But what if one day everything changed? What strange and unusual things do you think you would see?
    Let your imagination take over as Max discovers more than just leaves and birds in the trees. On this day he will introduce you to many different fish of all different colours, doing different things, all while sitting in the trees. This is the story of 15 fish sitting in a tree.

    Stacey Davidson was raised in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, growing up in the "P" Patch. She has called Amherstburg, Ontario, home since 1996, where she and her husband Michael have raised their two beautiful children, Rachelle and Katie. Amherstburg is one of the most beautiful places to live, so she is incredibly proud to say that she is from there and to be a part of such an awesome community. Spending time with her family and friends is what makes Stacey happy. Her parents and siblings all reside in the Sault, so much of her vacation time is spent there with her mom and dad, Wayne and Cathie Bishop, and her extended family, including her siblings, Mark, Susan and Richard. Rhyming and riddles have always come easily to Stacey, so she has used this talent to write and to create stories, poems and even road-rally scavenger hunts.
