Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
Great White Shark
Curious Kids Press · 2014
54/100
👎 Skip It
This one follows the usual Curious Kids Press formula — 15 shark facts, real photos, a short quiz — and it's fine for young readers, though the predator subject means a quick parental skim isn't a bad idea. Note there's a similarly named but different book out there, so make sure you grab the right one.
