Clark the shark is thrilled about the class trip to the farmers' market, but his excitement causes him to miss important instructions. Lost in the bustling crowd, Clark must rely on his rhyming skills to find his way back.

This lively tale, filled with colorful illustrations and fun facts about sharks, is perfect for young readers eager to dive into the world of words and adventure.
