SEA CREATURES FROM THE SKY

A touching, beautifully illustrated story of a misunderstood shark, and its quest to understand the world both above and below the sea.

“This is a tale of no one believing something that is entirely true . . . has that ever happened to you? Not a b, not a fable, nor a stretch of reality. This really, really, really, really happened to me.” So opens Sea Creatures from the Sky—a gorgeously illustrated, children’s picture book from the New York Times best-selling illustrator of Seriously, You Have to Sleep, and the adult gift book, Go the F**k to Sleep.

Cortés’s stunning seascapes follow the story of an unnamed shark who has a story to share with its shark friends about creatures who live above the ocean. Strange-looking creatures—one with a beard— who move across the ocean in boats. But after our shark has met these two creatures (who look suspiciously like nice, caring marine biologists), who thankfully release it back into the ocean, the shark cannot nd one friend to believe its tale. Filled with humor and warmth, Sea Creatures from the Sky, will charm children and parents alike.
