Synopsis

'From the time Gilbert the Great White Shark was a tiny pup, Raymond the Remora stuck to him like glue. Raymond was always on Gilbert's side.' Then one day, Gilbert wakes up to find that Raymond has gone. Mum does all she can to help her little shark come to terms with his loss and - slowly but surely - Gilbert learns to smile a wobbly smile through his sadness. He knows that Raymond will always be in his heart and, when mum takes Gilbert to the Wreck, a chance meeting helps him find happiness once more. Jane Clarke and Charles Fuge have created a refreshingly different picture book that speaks volumes about the importance of friendship.
