Clark the Shark Takes Heart

32 pp. | HarperCollins/Harper | December, 2014 | Trade ISBN 978-0-06-219227-1 $17.99
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Guy Francis. Big, strong showboater Clark the Shark fears only one thing: girls. Clark tries to impress Anna Angelfish with grand gestures--winning a race, saving the school boat--but as each ends in a flop, Clark finally listens to advice from friend Joey Mackerel ("sometimes the best things...come in small packages"). Underwater school-time illustrations provide an entertaining twist on a well-worn conflict.
