James Patrick Fry is making his debut in the literary world with Finny and Squirt. This book is based on his passion for Marine Science which was developed while attending Spring Hill College in Mobile, AL. Since graduation, James has found his niche in the education realm where he has been teaching Chemistry for the last 8 years. He is excited at the opportunity to have been published and hopes that this is the first of many works to come. He would like to dedicate this book to his nephews, Brendan and Aidan. He currently resides in West Chester, Pennsylvania.
After they swam to the kitchen to eat
They left their home to go to school in the deep.
But as they swam away from home and into the sun
Whitey the shark decided to spoil their fun.
