From the time Gilbert the Great White Shark was a tiny pup, Raymond the Remora stuck to him like glue…
Then one day, he wakes up to discover that Raymond has gone. And in this gentle picture book about loss, there is no reunion. Raymond doesn’t come back. And with his mother’s help, the shark learns to live without his friend.
Jane Clarke’s gentle, sad, funny story, beautifully illustrated by Charles Fuge,
Tenderly told… A cosy and witty picture of shark life

this is a book to share. A parent can read it when a child has lost a pet, a family member, or a best friend moves away. A teacher can keep it on standby for when these situations arise in the classroom.. Gilbert really is great.
