Bookroo's summary

Shark's appetite lands him in hot water when he swallows Bob Jellyfish during a live show. As Bob fumes inside, Shark must navigate the murky waters of friendship and honesty. Can Shark prove he's not a menace, or will Bob's anger drive them apart forever? Dive into a sea of humor and marine facts as Shark learns if friends really don't eat friends.

From the publisher

In this new Misunderstood Shark story from New York Times bestselling duo Ame Dyckman and Scott Magoon, Shark dares to ask the question: Can friends eat friends (and get away with it)?Last time on Underwater World with Bob Jellyfish…SHARK ATE ME! Now get me OUT, Shark!That’s strange! I can hear Bob, but I can’t see Bob!This hilarious follow-up to Misunderstood Shark by New York Times bestselling duo Ame Dyckman and Scott Magoon tackles what it really means to be a good friend. Bob is already irate that Shark has eaten him, but when Shark doesn’t admit to eating him, Bob is so mad he declares that the ocean isn’t big enough for both of them! Friends Don’t Eat Friends is exploding with over-the-top humor and awesome marine facts! For example, when Shark overdoses on Finilla Ice Cream after fighting with Bob, we learn that shark teeth are coated with fluoride. Lucky for Shark, he can’t get cavities! Join Shark and the gang for another story and find out if Shark learns his lesson about friendship, or if he really is just misunderstood – again!
