Shark Girl

Kate Beaton

A laugh-out-loud picture book from bestselling comics creator Kate Beaton about a brave shark girl bent on revenge after a greedy fishing captain messes with her waters—perfect for fans of We Don’t Eat Our Classmates.

When Shark Girl is captured in a fishing net by an evil captain, she makes a vow… for REVENGE!

With the sea witch’s help, Shark Girl becomes a human sailor and launches a plan… for MUTINY!

But she’ll need her crewmates’ help to pull it off. Will Shark Girl sink… or swim?

Bestselling creator Kate Beaton delivers a subversive, hilarious spin on the classic Little Mermaid tale that will inspire young readers. Sometimes, standing up for what’s right means you have to show your teeth.

An indie bestseller!
