Product Description
Enter the mysterious underwater world of the shark, and discover how the various members of this fascinating family of fish are perfectly adapted to their environments. Large, colorful spreads complemented by step-by-step illustrations and informative captions provide children with a close-up look at these toothy predators, including where they live, how their bodies work, what they eat, and how they catch their prey. Whether it's the ferocious tiger shark, the slow-moving basking shark, or the cleverly camouflaged nurse shark, every child's favorite shark can be found in this exciting overview of shark life. At the end of the book, an illustrated glossary and comprehensive index offer a feeding frenzy of exciting details to sharpen the young reader's reference skills.

 A nice kids book October 25, 2000
8 out of 9 found this review helpful
If you are looking for some books for your young one to read and learn from "The Best Book of Sharks" is a nice start. Since it is directed to kids the detail level is minimal. If your kids like fish this book will have them asking questions.This is a nice book for parents to read to their kids, while they look at the pictures

This is a good book for children 2 to 7. my son who is 3 1/2 and several of my dar-care-children enjoy looking at this book. It shows several species of sharks, talks about their gills and how they breath with their gills. Shows Scuba divers studying the sharks.The scuba divers where of great interest to the children. The photos are very nice. It has just enough information for a young child.

This beautifully illustrated book has some teeth. It identifies many kinds of sharks as well as gives information about their life cycles, how babies are born, where they live and how they eat. It is straight forward, does not demonize sharks or scare kids about them. And it's great to look at.
My boys liked it April 17, 2003

I havne't personally seen this book since I had it shipped to my granddaughter who is 7 years old. She LOVES it, and from what she has told me she has learned alot about Sharks. Parent's were happy with the quality of the book.
