The Secret Goldfish

J.D. Salinger's 'The Catcher in the Rye' opens with Holden Caulfield praising the literary efforts of his older brother D.B.

"He wrote this terrific book of short stories, The Secret Goldfish, in case you never heard of him. The best one in it was "The Secret Goldfish." It was about this little kid that wouldn't let anybody look at his goldfish because he'd bought it with his own money. It killed me."

This is a story hinted at but never told. Taking their starting point in this brief piece of information, our students create their own versions of the story, record them, and share them here with you. Enjoy!
