Deep down in the beautiful blue sea lived a funny clownfish named Marlin. He had one little son called Nemo, and he loved him more than all the shiny shells in the ocean! Marlin was a super careful daddy because he wanted to keep Nemo safe every single day.
Nemo was very excited and curious. He loved swimming fast, making bubbles, and saying “Hi!” to every fish he met. “Dad, look at that cool rock!” he would shout. Marlin would smile and say, “Stay close, little buddy!”
One sunny morning, Nemo wanted to go on a big adventure with his school friends. “Dad, please can I go? I promise to be careful!” Marlin gave him a big hug and said yes — but he was still a tiny bit worried.
Off Nemo went — wheeee! Into the wide blue sea!
But oh no! A diver came and gently scooped Nemo up into a little bag. Nemo waved goodbye to his friends as he was taken far away to a dentist’s office fish tank.
Marlin was so worried! “My son! I have to find him!” he shouted. He started swimming as fast as he could across the huge ocean.
On his journey, Marlin met a very friendly (but very forgetful) blue tang fish named Dory. “Just keep swimming, just keep swimming!” she sang happily. Marlin smiled — even though he was scared, having a friend made everything feel a little better.
Together they swam through bubbly coral reefs and wavy seaweed forests!
They met silly sharks who wanted to be friends (but had very sharp teeth!), danced through wobbly jellyfish, and even zoomed past noisy seagulls who shouted “Mine! Mine! Mine!”
Every time things got tricky, Dory said, “We can do this!” and Marlin felt braver. They never gave up on finding Nemo.
Meanwhile, in the dentist’s fish tank, Nemo made lots of new friends. There was Gill the grumpy but kind leader, Bubbles the yellow tang who loved bubbles, and many others. They all wanted to get back to the ocean!
Nemo had a super clever idea — they would block the filter and make a big escape!
Just in time, Marlin and Dory arrived at the dentist’s office! They peeked through the window and saw Nemo swimming out of the tank in a big whoosh of bubbles. “Dad!!” shouted Nemo. “Nemo!!” shouted Marlin.
They hugged and laughed and spun in happy circles. Marlin learned that Nemo was brave and clever — and Nemo learned his dad loved him very, very much.
Marlin, Nemo, and Dory swam home together through sparkly blue water. They laughed, played tag, and told everyone about their amazing adventure. From that day on, Marlin let Nemo explore — but he always swam close by with a big smile.
And they all lived happily ever after in the most wonderful ocean ever!
