- Troll, Ray. Sharkabet: A Sea of Sharks From A to Z. Illus by Ray Troll. American museum of National History, 2002, 40 pages, Primary

-Set in an abstract or another universe, Sharkabet is a concept picture book that can grab any reader's attention with fantastical mixed-media illustrations that dive right into your imagination. This book is amazingly written with fun text and colored letters making it a unique tool for educators to teach the show more alphabet and learn about sharks that will keep the attention of the most distracted learners in my experience.

"Salmon in the Trees" describes the equilibrium with nature reached by human comunities in Southeast Alaska. Most of these comunities are near, or even inside the Tongass National Forest. This is a very accurate picture of the ecosystem of the area, which includes also the human settlements, the Tlingit and Haida tribes who were the original settlers, but also the white settlements. There is a point of pride in being able to maintain this human - nature relationship. Ah! And the photography show more is excellent! show less

Another ABC book to educate children on learning their ABC’s while adding sharks to the content. Sharks are listen by their names in ABC order with several facts or images of them to make it more interesting to the young reader.

I LOVE this book. Sharks rule, and so does Ray Troll.
