BUYING ADVISORY: Pre K - OPTIONAL
AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE
When a bullying shark takes over the playground scaring all the fish friends, Mr. Fish decides to speak up and tell the shark that he is behaving badly, which emboldens Fish’s friends to stand up to him, too.
The illustrations are delightful and busy - lots to look at and point to, so it would make a great shared board book, however, while the message is important, it resolves itself much too easily, and feels a bit heavy handed and trite. I’m afraid a child attempting the same solution might be sorely disappointed.
