Clark the Shark

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Guy Francis. Clark loves school so much he can barely contain his excitement, but a shark his size spinning out of control intimidates the other fish, so he has trouble fitting in. With the help of his teacher, Clark slowly learns how to "stay cool" when it counts. Overlooking the precious rhymes and overt lesson, Francis skillfully captures the heart of Clark's exuberance (and his classmates' wide-eyed trepidation).
