The Shark in the Dark - Tapa dura

Down at the bottom of the deep dark sea Something is stirring and it wants its tea . . . The shark in the dark is big, mean and greedy and he enjoys tormenting all the little fishes in the depths of the ocean. Until one day, a squid comes up with a cunning plan to unite the fish and teach the shark a lesson he'll remember forever. A tremendously funny rhyming story, with a biting twist!
