This book is for ages 5-9. In this book it shares some really interesting facts about sharks. I would recommend this to any child that is very interested about sharks. (

This is like an informational magazine on sharks. It would be great for having in the basket at school to browse, or read about sharks. This also would be a good text to have students practice reading on because it is something that may be interested in and has powerful images. (

A story all about sharks, and how they live. Children love this book and want teachers to tell them more by reading it. (

Beautiful and brightly colored pictures guide you through the ocean as you learn about sharks. You learn what we call baby sharks, what their skin feels like, what their eyesight is like and many other interesting facts. Kids will love looking at the pictures as they read the basic and understandable text of this book. (
