Super Shark Encyclopedia and Other Creatures of the Deep

Super Shark Encyclopedia is a beautiful, informative and fun book for middle school children who want to learn about sharks and other sea creatures; crabs, shrimp, penguins, octopus, starfish, etc. In lively prose and with gorgeous pictures (I used Bluefire reader) it is focused on five themes: amazing anatomy (the Lefteye Flounder has two left eyes!), survival in the sea, animal athletes, supernatural senses and exploring the deep which refers to the varying and unusual creatures that live deep in the ocean floor. Each fish is fully described and comes with a box of "stats and facts" which describe the most fascinating information about that particular creature of the deep as well as an "At a Glance" page which tells about its size, show more habitat, location and diet. I was wowed by the information and by the respect and love shown for these alluring and magnificent beings. DK books are always visually beautiful and for that reason I recommend that you buy the actual book instead of the Kindle version. Although it is wonderful to look at on an e reader I think it would be more spectacular if you could see the full two page pictures at once. Thank you to Edelweiss for allowing me to review this book. show less
