Young readers can learn about sharks.

Beautiful photographs show different kinds of sharks in their natural habitat. Opening with a Great While Shark leaping out of the ocean, this 8 page information picture book helps young children learn about sharks in an easy reader format. We learn that some sharks swim near the top and others at the bottom of the ocean. Some are flat while others are round. The pictures are beautiful and interesting, but a large "Fun Fact" oval is placed on many of the photos acting more like a sticker disrupting the look and feel. The "Fun Fact" adds a lot more text and often has more words than the main text of the page. However, young children are very interested in sharks and will enjoy the photos whether they can read the words or not. Recommended. Ages 4-7. ( )
