I Survived the Shark Attacks of 1916
By: Lauren Tarshish

Chet, a boy whose parents are in California finding a job, says with his uncle in New Jersey.
Uncle was a baseball player and now worked in a diner. Sid and Duey are Chet’s friends and like to play pranks on people. Captain Wilson is a customer who comes to Uncle’s diner every morning. The killer shark who kills 3 (or 4) people.

The book is about a boy named Chet who moves to New Jersey and gets attacked by a vicious shark. He pulled a prank on Sid and Duey and they have been mad. When Chet has to save Sid from becoming dinner, Chet gets attacked and his calf becomes dinner to a Killer Shark.

I learned that Chet was a made up character, but somebody really got attacked and survived the Shark Attack of 1916. I learned that Sid and Duey liked to pull pranks that would scare people half to death.

I would recommend this book because it is scary and full of adventure. It is also a great way to learn about the year 1916 and the monster man-eating shark without having to be so boring.
 
 
This book is a little scary. This is one of my very first book reports so its not as good as my first post.
