In this picture
High above the water, a mako shark with a long pointed nose bends in mid-leap and grins. Its tail kicks up a curling splash from the rolling waves, while the sun shines between two clouds.

Coloring ideas
- Leave the splash curls and flying drops white, then color the waves beneath them in two blues, a darker one for the lowest line.
- Make the sky a soft yellow near the sun and blue farther away, pressing lightly so the clouds stay bright.
- For a silly version, give the leaping shark rainbow fins and count how many colors you used.
Talk about it
- Jump as high as you can, then say what you would see from above the waves.
- What made the shark leap out of the water, and where will it land?
