In this winning underwater tale of friendship, mermaid Kate's best friend Dave is a shark with teeth that fairly tingle to bite something, anything. To keep Dave's mind off his teeth, the friends decide to visit their friend Eel, who has lost his zap, literally. The light tone, wordplay, and humorous situations are accompanied by silly sketches on every page.
