From the harmless and huge whale shark to the puny pygmy shark, these fascinating creatures come in many shapes and sizes...which mean so do their prey. Let your child learn about which species like what snacks, how they make their kill, who gulps up tiny plankton and who stalks unsuspecting swimmers into the depths...They'll discover what to do if they meet a shark face to face from the real experts: surfers and divers whose legs, arms and flesh became lunch for a hungry hunter. Scientists weigh in to explain why sharks attack, and what makes an attack so deadly. So grab your child, some scuba gear and get on the boat, we've got sharks to find!
