Editorial Reviews

Praise for Shark Party:
Keeping things buoyant, Chanani tucks jokes about peeing in the ocean into this sequel to Shark Princess along withmeaningful exchanges about different preferences when it comes to being alone or with others. Glides along on a warm current of affirmation that princesses, despite their differences, are united in a love of adventure."
—Kirkus Reviews

Praise for Shark Princess:
"The story is overt in its message of self-love, and the digitally rendered artwork is clean and simple with calming washes of ocean blue and scattered bursts of fun color. A wholesome addition to the growing collection of early graphic novels for beginning readers."
—Booklist

“Who gets to be a princess? That’s the crux of this firmly inclusive, emotionally generous graphic novel by Chanani. Readers are immersed in an undersea cartoon world where Kitana, a whale shark sporting a seashell-and-starfish crown, is the self-declared 'first shark princess.' Mack worries that [his] dangerous teeth and severe allergies are instant disqualifiers [to be a princess], but it’s his realization that expression and identity aren’t about rules or permission that make this series starter sparkle.” —Publishers Weekly

From the Publisher

2023-02-25
When sharks gather for a party, two finny princesses put on the “sharkle.”
Actually, extroverted mako shark Mack has to drag his reluctant larger friend, krill-eating whale shark Kitana, to the big bash, as crowds make her nervous. But the roles switch when delivering a tardy invitation to a certain deep-sea shark means diving into strange, dark waters: “We’re princesses,” she reminds her timorous bestie with a wink, “and we loveadventure!” Down they go, to discover and exclaim over the sea bottom’s bioluminescent residents and meet Adrina, a friendly but solitary ninja lanternshark who turns out to be even less of a party animal than Kitana. Keeping things buoyant, Chanani tucks jokes about peeing in the ocean into this sequel to Shark Princess (2022) along with meaningful exchanges about different preferences when it comes to being alone or with others. She also positively packs many of her neatly drawn and colored panels and full-page scenes with different species of sharks (collectively called a shiver, she notes in a closing set of shark facts and activities), all named and accurately depicted.
Glides along on a warm current of affirmation that princesses, despite their differences, are united in a love of adventure. (Graphic fiction. 7-9)
