Mr. Mark Lestark

the Shark was a

first rate tenor.

When he got on stage, his

voice was so thrilling that

the audience couldn’t stop

crying. Ladies were

fainting and gentlemen

envied him – although

they would never admit it.

All little boys in the ocean

wanted to grow up and

become tenors and all

little girls dreamed of

becoming sopranos and

sing with Mr. Lestark.

One day, Mr. Mark Lestark the

Shark thought that a tenor

cannot sing with dirty teeth and

decided to brush them.

He reached for the tube, he

spread toothpaste on the

toothbrush and started brushing

his teeth rigorously. But, alas!

Instead of toothpaste he had

mistakenly used blue paint.

And when he got on

stage that night and

opened his mouth to

sing, people started

laughing.

«Look, his teeth are

blue. What did he

have for lunch?»

«Cuttlefish cooked in

its ink,» they were

saying and laughed

till they cried.

Mr. Mark Lestark

the Shark, the best

tenor in the ocean,

was so

embarrassed that

he became red as a

red mullet.

Without wasting

time, he ran to Mrs.

Dale McDale the

Whale, the dentist.

«What happened to you?» she cried in

terror when she saw his teeth.

«I tried to brush them, but I’m afraid

I messed it up,» said he and started

crying.

«Come, come, don’t cry, I’ll clean

them up and everything will be fine,»

said Dale McDale the Whale and got

to work.

She brushed and brushed and brushed

and when she finally was done, Mr.

Mark Lestark had once more teeth

white as snow.

He stood in front of the

mirror and smiled to his

shiny white teeth.

«Now, Mr. Lestark,»

said Mrs. Dale McDale,

«all you have to do is

brush your teeth every

morning and night and

they will always stay

white and healthy.»

And so, after he put the

blue color tube where it

belonged, Mr. Mark

Lestark is not only the

best tenor in the ocean,

but he also has the whitest

and healthiest teeth!!!
