In the depths of the ocean, a menacing shark lurks, ready to make the other sea creatures his next meal. . . until a clever squid hatches a plan!
The poor fish in the sea live in fear of the nasty shark. They don't want to be his dinner! Just as the shark is closing in, the fish meet a clever squid, who hatches a plan to teach the shark a lesson once and for all. It involves a shadowy head, a shadowy tail, and a huge amount of teamwork! Can the flustered fish pull it off?
The Shark in the Dark is a tremendously funny book written by Peter Bently and illustrated by Ben Cort - with a biting twist! This delightful story, told in verse, celebrates the power of friendship and the importance of standing up to bullies. With vibrant illustrations that bring the underwater world to life, it's a perfect read-aloud for children who love exciting animal tales with a message.
