Description

The simple text and supportive photographs in this book introduce beginning readers to sharks.

Quick Summary

If your kid is obsessed with ocean animals, this is a great little pick. The photos are real and help kids actually see what sharks look like rather than just imagining the scary movie versions they might have seen. At only 213 words with simple sentences, it's perfect for beginning readers who want to feel accomplished finishing a book about something they actually care about. Parents will appreciate that it presents sharks in a factual, not overly scary way - it's a nice bridge for kids who might be nervous about sharks but are curious enough to want to learn more. This pairs really well with other simple animal books like the National Geographic Kids "100 Things You Should Know About Sharks" if your kiddevours this one and asks for more.
