This is the cutest book!!! The illustrator does the best job at using different aquatic animals to show kindness. I could see this being used in a lower grade to talk about kindness, or have it in a classroom library for older kids to enjoy.

Hahahaha!!! The sea human. That's a fun way of introducing a human in a world of sea animals!

I just love this book so much!

What's up with this colourful pages? I totally fell for the entire book cover to cover!

The illustration is just too cute to handle.

And the comics got me real bad. Because they poke you. Right at your heart. Like hitting the mean spot and turn you back to a better babylike being. We needed something like this. I needed this. Forget the kids who would read this. The adults are going to get this for the kids so the adult here is thoroughly impressed and telling the other adults elsewhere to get this and celebrate this cuteness.

Sharks holding coffee mugs. I mean I never thought I would see it ever. Friendship rules updated and done rightly so!

I repeat the entire book is just too cute. It makes you feel fluffy and soft and kick away all your fake friends.

Thank you, author and the publisher for the advanced reader copy.

This is a sweet book. A collection of cute moments between a shark and his friends, I couldn't help but smile when I looked at the illustrations. Each picture is about friendship and invariably about it is humorous and sweet from a shark taking a selfie to going to a job interview. He and his friends don't have buckets of confidence but they buoy each other up with some kind words and that usually does the trick. A sweet book for the coffee table.

This was really cute and fun! I wasn't aware this was a thing but I'm really glad I found out about it! The format reminded me of Cat's Cafe and it was really cute and a great cheer up! I highly reccomend this one it's cute, it's quirky, it's a quick read, it's inspirational in some way and it's all about friendship!

Omg! When Sharks Attack With Kindness was the cutest, most wholesome thing that has happened to me throughout all of 2020. As a self-proclaimed shark fin-atic, these comics were exactly how I believe sharks should be portrayed! The comics were cute, funny and enjoyable for people of all ages! Loved it!

Every piece of Colmenares' inspires such joy and creativity! Bringing kindness and love to sea creatures and inspiring readers to find the little things in life, this book is incredibly endearing and a perfect gift for yourself if ever in need of a smile or chuckle.

Definitely, I am going to buy this one. I love sharks and I want this to be a goodnight book for my future children. It's unbelievably cute, about friendship and kindness, it's funny, and "I totally misread the situation." made me laugh out loud. Brilliant. More like this, the right dosage of cuteness.

This is one of the best graphic comic collections I have read this year. And considering the number of books I've read from that genre in 2020, that's saying quite a lot!

Set around sea creatures especially sharks, the book espouses the values of friendship, kindness and support. Every single comic conveys a lot.

The entire book has the cutest illustrations that are totally "Awww-inducing". You'll begin to see sharks and other sea animals in a very different light.

Absolutely loved this book and would recommend it to one and all.

I have been following WawaWiwa Comics for some time now on Instagram. I absolutely love the comics, and the ones included in this book. I will definitely be purchasing this one on release day. I am also hopeful if this one does well, we will see a Visual Hug 1 & 2. As well as other future books.

This was such a sweet comic collection, full of so much charm! I’d recommend it for slightly older kids who want a short a funny introduction to comics.

Wow, I totally didn't expect to love this book. I can't stop smiling throughout the book. It's really simple yet funny and it's filled with puns too! The illustration is SO cute and I'd love to buy a copy for myself when this book comes out.

This comic is ideal for those who want to leave their mind blank and fill it with positive and pleasant thoughts for themselves. I felt a beautiful warmth on each page and I enjoyed the illustrated situations far more than I expected. Simply I loved it.

This is a book full of lighthearted comics about every day life. Taking place in the ocean to present deep thoughts, the author is able to personify many different aquatic creatures and allow them to experience scenarios humans live through all the time. From sharks being matchmakers for humans, to turtles losing friends to the sands of time and then gaining new ones, this book is able to hook the reader with the art-style and personalties given to these creatures. There is also a list of creatures at the beginning, so that the reader will be able to identify them as they swim deep into the sea and enjoy the book in its entirety.

This. is a cute picture book. I feel this book can be called "early graphic novel". There is no story in it, but all little kindness things Shark does for making friends. Very positive and funny.
