Slickety Quick: Poems about Sharks

Slickety Quick - Poems about SharksWritten by Skila Brown, Illustrated by Bob Kolar

Not only does this book have fun and clever poems about sharks, it also contains facts and information about the creatures as well. I am glad that Skila Brown chose some of the more unusual sharks to describe, such as the Cookiecutter shark (I had never heard of it before) and the Mako shark. I also learned new things about familiar sharks, like that the Blue shark can have a litter of more than 25 pups at a time! This is a wonderful book about sharks and a great way to introduce children to poetry.
