Best shark book EVER! My kid is a shark nut and we checked out 15 or more books from the library about sharks, but nothing comes close to how awesome this book is!!! The pictures are beyond amazing and the facts are so fun to read! This book included all 498 known shark species!!! My kids and I have spent hours paging through and reading about all the species of majestic sharks. We are shark fans so getting this book is like being a kid on Christmas! 5 stars. A MUST read for those who love sharks!!
This was a great book with anything and everything that you could think of in regards to sharks. No matter if you want to know about things from anatomy to what they eat and so much more, this is your book. On top of this the amazing content is filled with great pictures that accompany and through this you truly get up close and personal with the sharks you know as well as uncommon ones that you would only dream of. I learned so much in reading this, and even learned so much more about the fact that not all sharks are dangerous as you normally would think. This book has so much packed into one place and is an ultimate guide for anyone wanting to know more about sharks in general!*I received a copy for review - all opinions are my own*
Every year I've been buying my son a gift to start off Shark Week on the Discovery Channel and this was the book for this year's gift. He LOVED it and wont' put it down. He enjoyed learning new and interesting facts about all different types of sharks and then being able to watch the episodes that were on Shark Week 2013 to reinforce what he just learned was great. I highly recommend the book for those who like sharks, especially those younger than 10!
Bought this book for my five year old grandson who loves sharks. He loves this book! His mother told me he always wants her to read it to him. He is just learning to read so it's too advanced for a beginner reader. But so well written that it keeps his attention and has added to his comprehension skills. He enjoys telling me what he's learned about different sharks.This is a very comprehensive well written children's shark book. The pictures are vibrant and exciting exactly what you expect from the Discovery Channel. I would recommend this book for shark lovers of any age.
This book was a gift for a second grader that likes sharks. Wow!! For anentire week the book didn't leave their side. Full of beautiful photosand interesting facts. If you like sharks you can't go wrong with this book.
I'm not normally a huge fan of sharks, but this gorgeously photographed volume was just too colorful to pass up.This profiles a number of different shark species and covers absolutely everything you need to know about sharks including what they eat, how the interact with each other and humans, and their bodies inside and out. It's really quite fascinating. I was especially intrigued to learn that scientists are discovering new shark species all the time due to the availability of new models of deep sea diving equipment and the access that brings to new DNA sources.If you are a shark fan this is a must read. It would also make a lovely gift for shark fans young or old. I definitely recommend this comprehensive educational and entertaining volume!
You know the more we know about what we are scared of the better we are at combating it. So with help from The Discovery Channel, we are now the proud owner of Sharkopedia: The Complete Guide to Everything Shark. I know the cover is just what many are fearful of. But inside there is so much information. My favorite think inside is learning how sharks do not always look like....well sharks. Honestly, have you heard of Wobbegong? Well that funky looking thing that is also a shark. No menacing teeth. A rather odd looking pattern with old dude looking whiskers. There is tons of info and I am hoping that with knowledge comes a calmness that will keep us from leaping out of the water.
What an incredible book! I bought this for my son as a 3rd birthday present. He is obsessed with sharks and loves looking at the pictures in this book. It is PACKED with beautiful photos and terrific information about every shark there is. I enjoy flipping through it too!
