One morning, Sheila the Shrimp woke up to get ready for work. As she started to get ready, there was a BIG problem...... she couldn’t find her SHOES!



She began to shiver and shout, “I need to find my shoes! I can’t be late for work!”



Then, Sheila realized something was wrong. When she looked out her window, she saw Shadow the Shark shooting out of her house with her shoes!

 Sheila the Shrimp began to shout!

“Hey Shadow! Get back here right now! Shame on you for stealing my shoes!



Sheila the Shrimp started to shred tears as she called the Sheriff Shark to her home. Sheriff Shark was shocked to hear the news. 

Sheriff Shark saw how sad Sheila was as she started to shower her tears. At this moment, Sheriff Shark realized he needed to get Sheila’s shoes back!



In shambles, Sheriff Shark shot across the ocean as fast as he could to talk to Shadow.



As he arrived at the shaky ship, he began to get nervous. Sheriff Shark is actually very shy, so he was scared to go on the shaky ship.



Although he was scared, he knew that he needed to do this for Sheila. As he saw Shadow, he began to shout!

Shame on you Shadow! Why did you take Sheila’s shoes?!”



Shadow the Shark began to cry.

“I am sorry I took Sheila’s shoes. I don’t know how to get my own shoes.” 

“I am sorry you don’t have your own shoes, but it is not nice to steal from others,” Sheriff Shark said to Shadow.



The two of them went back to Sheila’s house with her shoes! Sheila was so happy.

“I am sorry I took your shoes, they are just so cool,” said Shadow the Shark. 

“Hey Shadow! If you want, we could go shopping for shoes for you! It just isn’t nice to take things from others without asking,” Sheila the Shrimp said.

He agreed, and Sheriff Shark, Sheila the Shrimp, and Shadow the Shark swam off in the distance to shop for some new shoes for Shadow.
