Very cute chapter book with a Dolphin school and four dolphin friends. In this one, Splash makes a secret friend - a blacktip shark. The blacktip shark, named Spinner, has gotten separated from his family and needs help. The dolphins are a little worried about helping a shark though.

Well, our second chapter book was less inspiring. Ella liked it (it does have a pink cover) but honestly even for a kids book it wasn't well written. I kept thinking - I could do better than this. These thoughts popped in every second page or so.
The message of kindness and working together and being unprejudiced is all well and good though.
Apparently I am reading the next one soon. Yay.
un-problematic 2/10
