Praise For…

K-Gr 2–The first of the “Shark Chums” series, this lighthearted “Ready-to-Read” book will entertain emergent readers with an underwater party of sea creatures who get along swimmingly, thanks to a friendly, zippy shark. . . . With design effects like repeated forms across the page, currents of painted line direction, and shifting perspectives to dramatically zoom in on the characters, the illustrations invite young readers to read across the pictures to understand and talk about story details, even those unexpressed in the text. Similar to the form of couplets, pairs of three-word sentences support fluency with a rhyming or repetitive flow, complete with practice reading sentence mechanics, such as commas, ellipses, and exclamation points. In fewer than eighty words, the story’s select collection of sight words combine with various short and long vowels and rhyme families to create a well-rounded independent or shared reading experience. . . . Suitable for kindergarteners or first graders looking to model or strengthen their emerging skills.

A longtime collector and owner of two fine art galleries, Alterman wanted to create a user-friendly book intended not only to educate collectors and enthusiasts about this art but to help train one's eye.
