Award-winning children’s illustrator Nick Sharratt has done it again! Young children will love doing the actions, sticking their fingers through the holes, joining in with the repeated phrases, and practicing which is left and which is right. But best of all, children will love Shark in the Park! because it will make them laugh! And they will ask for it again and again.

Mum is crazy about spots - spotty clothes, spotty wallpaper, spotty games like dominoes; Dad loves stripes - stripy suits and stripy ties, stripy humbug sweets. No wonder they make their son laugh - mind you, they think that he's funny in his grey patternless clothes. When they go to the safari park, Mum goes wild about the big cats, while Dad enthuses over the zebras. Packed with glorious patterns of stripes and spots, this book also contains a clue on each spread as to the nature of the little boy's obsession - from a pink elephant toothbrush-holder in the bathroom to a bun in the cafe!
