The Shark God
by Rafe Martin
illustrated by David Shannon

On a tropical island long ago, two children are sentenced to death by a cruel and heartless king. Though their parents plead for mercy, the king will not relent and no one on the island will help.

Desperate, the parents dare to do what none have done before: they seek out the great Shark God to ask for his aid. But the Shark God is huge and terrible to behold!

Is there compassion in that fierce, sharp smile? Or merely hunger?

Based on a traditional Hawaiian tale, THE SHARK GOD is a thrilling suspense story, a powerful morality tale, and a gorgeous glimpse of a beautiful land. Read it and be inspired.
