We're back this week with even more sharks as we discuss all things JAWS with one of our favorite middle-grade authors, Ira Marcks! Is the story from the movie true? Why is this particular shark so scary? Why are we still talking about this movie almost 50 years after its release? Ira has answers to those questions and sooo much more. It's Shark Summer all summer long on Unspookable!

Special thanks this week to Ira Marcks. Ira’s book’s Shark Summer and Spirit Week are available at Bookshop.org and wherever books are sold. To find out more about Ira, his work, and how your school or library can book an author visit, go to iramarcks.com
