I’m a Shark by Bob Shea. Meet a boastful little shark with an irrepressible attitude. Shark is just bursting with confidence in every situation. He’s not afraid of anything, he says, which impresses his underwater friends. But there may be one thing that even Shark fears. Will his friends figure it out?

Interrupting Chicken by David Ezra Stein. It's time for the little red chicken's bedtime story and a reminder from Papa to try not to interrupt… but the chicken can't help herself.  Now it's her turn to tell a story. Will her yawning papa make it to the end without his own kind of interrupting?
