Shark fans and emergent readers will enjoy all the stories starring this odd couple: Big Shark, Little Shark; Big Shark, Little Shark Go to School; and Big Shark, Little Shark, Baby Shark.

Step 1 Readers feature big type and easy words for children who know the alphabet and are eager to begin reading. Rhyme and rhythmic text paired with picture clues help children decode the story.
