A laugh riot, Shark Bait by Jeff Szpirglas and Danielle Saint-Onge, illustrated by Dave Whamond will leave your reader in stitches.

Orly always spends the summer on the coast with her grandmothers. This summer is especially special since not only is a shark named Delta popping up in the area but she also gets to take sailing lessons to get even closer to her beloved sharks. Orly is no so great at following instructions and gets grand ideas that often get her into trouble but her love of sharks and her keen sense of duty for ocean life leads to a pretty special ending to her week at sailing camp.

The Bee (7) is LOVING the Orca Echoes titles these days. She’s still not a confident reader but really wants to dive into more interesting, longer stories. Orca Echoes is a collection of books published by Orca Book Publishers perfect for young readers. The books are illustrated and highly engaging with large font and short chapters perfect for readers in grade 1 and up. Shark Bait! Is hilarious and anticipatory. Readers laugh along as Orly, singularity focused on Delta, gets into situation after situation. Readers will also gain an appreciation for ocean life and the effects of fishing and other industries on the oceans.

Dave Whamond’s illustrations are fantastic! We love the way he captured Orly and the crew from sailing camp adding to the humour of the story.
