Shark Vs. Train
Shark Vs. Train

Humorous showdown between unconventional competitors.

If the idea of two completely mismatched opponents facing off in increasingly ridiculous challenges tickles your fancy, "Shark vs. Train" is for you. It's a playful picture book that will not only entertain kids with its zany scenarios but will also charm adults with its witty humor and clever illustrations.

*Books may be missing bundle media (e.g. CD, e-book code), if included.
