Gilbert the shark and Raymond the remora are friends. They have lots of fun. They love to play finball, tide and seek and sardines. But one morning Raymond is gone. Gilbert is devastated. His mother tries to cheer him up, but nothing works until he meets Rita. She's crying because she's lost her shark. Gilbert invites her to stick around with him. This underwater adventure is also a subtle story of loss, love and recovery.
