Overview
If you think Superman vs. Batman would be an exciting matchup, wait until you see Shark vs. Train. In this hilarious and wacky picture book, Shark and Train egg each other on for one competition after another, including burping, bowling, Ping Pong, piano playing, pie eating, and many more! Who do YOU think will win, Shark or Train?
"This is a genius concept." -- Publishers Weekly, starred review
"Lichtenheld's snarling shark and grimacing train are definitely ready for a fight, and his scenarios gleefully play up the absurdity. The combatants' expressions are priceless when they lose. A glum train in smoky dejection, or a bewildered, crestfallen shark? It's hard to choose; both are winners." -- Kirkus, starred review

Who will win?
Well, that depends on if they’re…
in the ocean…
or on railroad tracks.
If they’re on a seesaw…
or in hot-air
balloons.
Roasting
marshmallows…
eating pies…
or having a
burping contest.
It depends on whether
they’re bowling…
shooting baskets…
or going off
the high-dive.
Running lemonade stands…
trick-or-treating…
or giving rides at a carnival.
It can depend on who
gets to pick first…
who names
the game…
and who deals
the cards.
But who wins
if they’re…
playing hide-and-seek…
or trying not
to get shushed?
Performing in a piano recital…
or playing Extreme
Zombie-Squirrel Motocross?
Exploring distant galaxies…
or sword fighting
on a tightrope…
or…
End of the line.
Continues...
