An ebullient and unabashedly entertaining read aloud, One Day at the Bottom of the Deep Blue Sea has enough bite to excite readers of all ages.
Delightful characters created by Brandon James Scott are perfectly matched to Daniel Bernstrom's rollicking tale of bravery, trickery and undersea adventure.

"A celebration of bravery against a big bully… [with] upbeat emphasis on the rollicking rhythm and rhymes and the vibrant undersea setting.” —Kirkus Reviews
"A little girl searches for pearls under the sea when a shark comes along. To save herself, she makes a deal to find him something for his dinner in this clever story similar to folktales such as Margaret Read McDonald’s The Fat Cat (2001). The text has a Seuss-like jaunty rhyme with repetition... This will work well as a readaloud and as a way of showing a number of ocean animals."—BayViews, the monthly review publication of the Association of Children's Librarians of Northern California (ACL)
