Book Report I chose “The Shark And The Goldfish” by Jon Gordon for my book report. This book is about positive ways to thrive during waves of change and follows a goldfish named Gordy who washes out into the ocean. Gordy has always been taken care of and fed daily‚ but doesn’t know how to act or get food when he is in the ocean.

That number refers to the number being killed only for their fins and almost entirely to make shark fin soup. You may not really care

With that said shark finning should
