Will Bremner puff up and ruin the celebration? Will Sharkee ever find the teddy bear? These two relatable aquatic animals tell their stories in a new series of illustrated storybooks by Ripley Publishing.

Bremner and the Party and Sharkee and the Teddy Bear, both named after Ripley Aquarium mascots, are entertaining “tails” told with highly expressive illustrations to deliver fun, surprise and delight.

Hand-painted in watercolor, Bremner and the Party and Sharkee and the Teddy Bear are illustrated by John Graziano, officially the seventh artist to take up the pen since Robert Ripley originated the Believe It or Not! cartoon panel in 1918. Graziano has provided many illustrations for Ripley Publishing projects including Search for the Shrunken Heads, Twists: Pirates and the most recent addition to the Ripley shelves, It’s A Circle! (But not Just a Circle!) and Lobsters are Red (But sometimes they’re Not!) board books.
