Shark Wars by E.J. Altbacker-OPTIONAL


Altbacker, E. J., Shark Wars. Penguin Group, 2011. Pgs. 248. Language: G, Violence: PG, Sexual Content: G

Gray is a big cartilage shark pup who lets his hunger get the best of him. This ends up getting Gray banished from his shiver. Lost and wandering, he tries to find new friends and a support system. Gray’s adventure is just beginning as he finds himself and his destiny. Shark kind’s future rests on Gray and his decision.

The characters are underdeveloped and the plot is sketch and the ending doesn’t really resolve the main issues that set the plot. Shark fans, however, will enjoy the adventure and fishy relationhips throughout this book. EL (4-6). OPTIONAL. Reviewer: Jessica Moody, Library Media Specialist, Olympus Jr. High.
