One day Louie sees a baby shark at the beach, and that's where it all starts. Now everywhere he goes
he sees sharks . . . in the bath, in the park, even down the toilet.
With some help from his grandpa (who is very wise), Louie begins to face his fears. After all, he has
fireflies to count, new friends to make, and a whole new world to discover.
A funny, uplifting story from Marcela Ferreria and Mark Chambers, the author and illustrator of Bear vs Dragon.
