Hank the Shark

Wacky and wonderful songs and stories for the young... and the young at heart!

Gerry says Hi!

Welcome to the home of the wacky and wonderful books and music by Gerry Paul.

Hi guys! Hope you are all well.  Greetings from Berlin, where Gerry and Hank are hanging out for a few days after having a great time at the "Buchmesse" in Frankfurt.  They made some great new friends and have some interest from publishers in Oz, the UK and Ireland.  

NZ was the country of honour and some brilliant highlights were performances by Kapa Haka group Te Matarae from Rotorua and Tauranga singer Ria Hall.
 
Gerry and Hank return to NZ in mid-November and go straight into making a music video for "Hank the Wrestling Shark" as well as some performances to be announced.  Keep in touch!
Dum....dum....dum....dum....
 

This is where you will find all the information on Gerry's books, his music and a little about Gerry himself.  There are songs to listen to and CD's and books to buy, so take your time and have a look around.  

You can sign up on the right to receive emails on all the new tales and adventures that are happening in the wacky world of Hank the Shark and his friends.

Gerry's first book out is Hank the Wrestling Shark which is a lively, engaging and inspiring story to read and sing along to, with obvious appeal to anyone who's ever felt small and weak, and overcome the odds to feel strong and powerful.  It encourages children to free their imaginations, nurture their creativity and believe in themselves as they face life's challenges.
