THE ULTIMATE SHARK BOOK FOR KIDS:  Explore the underwater world of the ocean’s awe-inspiring guardians with this gorgeous book for ages 8-12 that’s full of fun facts, activities, and illustrations!

When you think about it, what do you really know about sharks? I bet one of the first images that sprang to mind was of a dangerous beast with its jaws bared, on a hungry hunt for humans. But what if I told you that out of all the animals in the world, sharks are one of the species that pose us the least danger? They're actually quite gentle, and their diets definitely don't include humans. We're not nearly tasty enough for them.

In this brilliant new installment by the dynamic author/illustrator team you will learn all about these fascinating and misunderstood creatures:
  • Did you know that there are over 520 species of shark?
  • Do you know what the biggest, or oldest, or most powerful shark is?
  • You will even learn about the cultures that, rather than fearing sharks, worship them as gods!

Featuring interactive elements throughout, this entertaining, fact-filled guide has everything from search and find spreads with hidden pictures, quizzes to test your knowledge of shark facts and lore, and even pages to bring to life with your coloring pencil and deeper dives for bright and curious minds.

The third title in the Amazing Ocean series is just as mind-blowing, inspiring and full of irreverent fun as the previous.
