If you are looking for a cute book - and one that puts a different spin on sharks...  You want to check out Surf Sharks - The First Wave!  

After all the Shark-week shows, it was expected that we would be talking about sharks a bit more... Instead of the scary images, we were treated to a fun way to learn more about them! Surf Sharks is a super cute and colorfully illustrated book that introduces us to 3 different sharks right up front.  

We meet: Mavrik - sleek blue mako, Talon - striped tiger shark and Hemi - hammerhead.  They all live in "Fin City" and one of them was pretty adamant about going to watch a surfing competition...   Of course, the other 2 don't want their friend going alone, so off the three buddies go...  (They had been warned to say away from the beaches that weekend, as the surf competition was going on and it wasn't safe for them to be over there.)  After we meet the three sharks, we end up meeting three surfers planning to enter the competition that weekend: Rip, Ozzy and Wade.  The surfers are planning on getting in the water, when they notice something... Thinking it is a dolphin, they go to investigate and end up seeing a shark caught in a net... The net was intended to keep surfers safe, but did not think about the danger that it would cause any sharks... 

I will not go further in telling you about the book, as I want you to see what a great story this is.  Obviously, you will talk to your kids about being safe and not interacting with sharks and all of that, but this is a great way to educate the kiddos (in a fun way.)  

We get to learn about different sharks, we get to learn that things that are meant to help, can actually harm other creatures and we also get to learn about friendships and safety.  I really enjoyed this book and it makes me happy to know that this was the first book of the series...  I can not wait to see what other life lessons we will be learning from the surf sharks!
