Gilbert the Great

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Charles Fuge. Gilbert the shark and Raymond the remora are inseparable. From finball to tide and seek, they do everything together. A bereft Gilbert is inconsolable when Raymond's family moves across the sea--until he meets Rita, a remora who's new to the area. Appealing underwater scenes liven up this predictable tale about moving from the point of view of the one left behind.
