The Hungry Shark

This undersea adaptation of the story of The Three Billy Goats Gruff features the shark in the role of the troll. One day he sees a seahorse and says, "I am going to eat you " "No, no, no," the seahorse responds. "I am much too little. But I know someone bigger." And with that he swims off and sends over the fish. Each time the shark is sent a slightly larger sea animal until finally the dolphin sends over the orca (killer whale). The simple, repetitive text is perfect for beginning readers to read all on their own. Children, as well as adults, will love the bright colors and illustrations.
