Fourteen shark species, from the utterly terrifying to the
surprisingly docile, glide through the pages of this vibrantly
illustrated, poetic picture book.
From the enormous whale shark to the legendary great white to the
enigmatic goblin shark to the small cookie-cutter shark, Slickety
Quick is a delightful frenzy of shark mayhem. Mysterious species such
as the camouflaged wobbegong and the elusive frilled shark share the
waters with better-known blue and nurse sharks, each commemorated in a
poem by Skila Brown and illustrated by Bob Kolar. Sneaky shark facts
ripple through each spread to further inform the brave and curious young
reader intrigued by the power -- and danger -- of these amazing
creatures.
