The popular undersea pals Nugget, a minnow, and Fang, a shark, are back in this first-day-of-school story that's full of heart and humor. </b> <p/>When Fang the shark is invited by his friends to attend Mini Minnows Elementary, he thinks it's a great idea! But then his first day of school arrives . . . and suddenly, he's not so sure. He's not very good at reading or math. He doesn't exactly fit in with his classmates. And the teacher looks crabby! Can Fang's best friend, Nugget, and the other minnows turn things around and prove to him that school really is <i>fang-tastic</i>? <p/> This reassuring first-day-of-school and friendship story is full of heart and humor, showing that everyone feels like a fish out of water sometimes, and that it's important to be a good friend.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Sauer and Slack keep up the laughs, and the reassurance."--<i>The New York Times Book Review</i> <p/> "[B]right and colorful.

[a] funny friendship tale."--<i>PW</i> <p/> "Sends a positive message about the power of friendship and the importance of individuality."--<i>School Library Journal</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Tammi Sauer, </b> a former teacher and library media specialist, is the author of many popular picture books.
