Reviews

In the book, it says that Great white sharks have flexible bodies. Did you know that it is said that Great White Sharks can jump approximately 2.5 metres, that's higher than any human has ever jumped! A Great white shark would be the best at ball games because he could use his big fins and powerful tail to hit the ball. A Great white shark would always know where the ball is because of his super senses. It's true because Great white sharks know when fish are swimming below or behind them and can even sense their heartbeat! If a Great white shark would want to play on a seesaw he would need a big one because a fully grown Great white shark weighs about 2,000 kilograms! That's the same weight as a rhinoceros or nearly 100 children! Great white sharks would love to play in the snow. Great white sharks don't mind getting chilly because they live in cool oceans. Whooshing downhill on a sledge would be just as much fun as speeding through the sea. Great white sharks can swim almost ten times faster than an average human! If a Great white shark was able to have a party ,it would be a barbecue because Great white sharks LOVE to eat meat! In the sea, Great white sharks eat seals and fish. However ,at a barbecue, he would eat approximately 5000 sausages in one go. He wouldn't need to eat again for two weeks! If a Great white shark went to the dentist, he would be there for a long time because Great white sharks have nearly 240 teeth! He wouldn't need a filling. Sharks lose teeth all the time but they keep growing new ones.

This book is very fun and exciting . I enjoyed the fun facts - the questions are exactly the sort that I had - how many sausages would I need if I invited a shark to tea? The pictures help make it fun too. There is a map about where great white sharks live which was very interesting. I’m going to choose another shark book to learn more.
