Shark vs. Train
LITTLE, BROWN Books for Young Readers
Co-created with Sibert Honor winner Chris BartonSo, who's tougher—Shark or Train? It all depends. When trick-or-treating, Shark is the clear winner, thanks to his wicked smile; but, in a marshmallow-roasting contest, Train triumphs by virtue of his built-in, coal-stoked roaster. And on and on it goes, with Shark and Train in one absurd competition after another until they discover that sometimes, nobody wins.
"This is a genius concept..."
Publishers Weekly, Starred Review
"Lichtenheld's snarling shark and grimacing train are definitely ready for a fight, and his scenarios gleefully play up the absurdity."
Kirkus Reviews, Starred Review
"Imaginative and very funny... This inspired pairing, executed with ingenuity and packed with action and humor, is a sure winner."
