Description
It's race day, and once and for all, it's time to determine the better feline: little cats or big cheetah. Cheetah might be bigger, taller, stronger, faster . . . but the little cats have some tricks up their sleeves, so don't count them out! With his signature wit and bold, graphic art, Bob Shea brings us an irresistible story about the difference between brains and brawn.

Reviews"A high-volume victory for compassion. " -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) Praise for I'M A SHARK: "Warm up your performance skills for the exclamatory narrative, and watch your audience become a school of kid-sized great whites before your very eyes." -- Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books Praise for I'M A SHARK: "There will be no need to fear for Shark's enduring popularity; here he proves he's one refreshing delight." -- Kirkus Reviews Praise for I'M A SHARK: "The oversize but spare drawings of a boastful young shark declaring his bravery guarantee giggles." -- School Library Journal Praise for OH, DADDY!: "The gentle humor evident in the contrasts between text and pictures, as well as the scenes of the father doing things outrageously wrong, will keep kids entertained." -- School Library Journal (starred review) Praise for OH, DADDY!: "Busy parents will want to try this formula of patience plus humor." -- Publishers Weekly "The art's lively energy keeps the book buzzing ... Kids will enjoy having one over on Cheetah as they see what's coming, and they'll appreciate an ending twist in which the loudmouthed braggart does not learn a lesson and the smaller felines suggest that winning isn't actually everything." -- ALA Booklist
