  • A great shark book for the shark obsessed kids!
Format: Hardcover
My son is 3 and is currently shark-obsessed. While this book isn’t able to be fully used by him to read himself right now, he loves looking at the pictures and it will be a great book to grow with him as he learns to read in the future. I do read it to him before bedtime at night sometimes and he loves hearing all the shark facts. ... show more

  • Wonderful book for my five-year-old
Format: Hardcover
My five-year-old son loves this book! I think it’s his favorite out of maybe 100 other books! He asked for a shark book for Christmas and this book delivers. It’s got so many fun pictures and great information. He loves learning about the sharks.

  • Good, but can be scary depending on child's age/interest
Format: Hardcover
The media could not be loaded. Got this book. Expecting my daughter to enjoy it after really liking the sharks at an aquarium. When we got it. She liked reading about certain sharks but a lot of the books scared her. We will keep it and read as she gets older. It does have a lot of very good information and pictures. Would definitely buy if you have a child that likes sharks or would like more information on them. ... show more

  • SHARK
Format: Hardcover
I bought this for a ghost boy in my house. Absolutely loves it, although I could've gotten anything shark/fish shaped and he would've loved it.

  • Great PIctures
Format: Hardcover
This book is full of wonderful pictures and interesting writing; however, it was not a great book to read to primary students in the classroom. I was hoping for a book that was laid out for reading and doing research on a few different kind of sharks. For this purpose the book was not the best. For a book for student to read on their own - who loves sharks - this would be perfect. ... show more
