NATIONAL BESTSELLER • Laugh and learn with fun facts about sharks from the smallest (the dwarf lantern) to the largest (the whale shark), the most notorious (the great white) to the most obscure (the goblin), and more—all told in Dr. Seuss’s beloved rhyming style and starring The Cat in the Hat!

      Gr 2-4-Twisted sentence structure, tongue twisters, forced rhyme scheme, and lack of a consistent cadence make this offering a difficult read-aloud. "See this wonderful boat bobbing here on the water?/It's my Super-Stupendous Shipshape Shark Spotter" is one of the better-scanning lines, but still is a clunky read. Written at an almost fourth-grade reading level and illustrated in a cartoon style, the book's intended audience is unclear. Older students would be better served by reading a nonfiction text about sharks, many of which are listed in the back matter, including David Doubilet and Jennifer Hayes's Face to Face With Sharks (National Geographic, 2009). Readers should skip right to these additional resources. Buy only where the TV show is popular.-Kelly Roth, Bartow County Public Library, Cartersville, GA

      Dr. Seuss's famous cat delivers an onslaught of facts about sharks in rhymes so choppy readers will need seat belts to navigate them. The characters, including Thing 1 and Thing 2, do resemble Seuss's comfortably familiar classic creations, but it's doubtful that he would have approved the claustrophobic layouts and clashing colors. Reading list. Glos., ind.
