How to Outswim a Shark Without a Snorkel

Description

But when the meanest mean girl at school volunteers at the new aquarium, Ana's life goes from sunny to sunk. Now Ana's stuck working with her archenemy, chasing after escaped hermit crabs, and cleaning up even more animal poop in her life. Ana's newest adventure has her questioning why, after finally getting her life sorted out, do things have to change...again?

As an author and zoologist, JESS KEATING has tickled a shark, lost a staring contest against an octopus, and been a victim to the dreaded paper cut. She lives in Ontario, Canada, where she spends most of her time writing books for adventurous and funny kids. Visit her online at www.jesskeating.com.

"By turns funny and poignant, this follow-up to How to Outrun a Crocodile When Your Shoelaces Are Untied (Sourcebooks, 2014) sees Ana Wright, whose family recently moved to New Zealand to live in a zoo, saddled with the unenviable task of working in the shark tank-with her nemesis, Ashley. Readers will easily relate to insecure Ana and will enjoy the fun animal factoids (and Ana's own funny responses to the trivia). A relatable, if not groundbreaking, caper." - School Library Journal
