Scary Sharks
Preview: Hear it

It is a beautiful summer day and even though it has gotten darker, you are not ready to leave the ocean. Suddenly, something brushes past your shoulder. You turn to see a dark shape circling back, heading straight for you. It is a shark! Could you be its next meal? Does this seem unlikely? It actually happened to eightyearold Jessie Arbogast. And although it is extremely rare for a human to be attacked by a shark, it does occasionally happen. In Scary Sharks, author Elaine Landau uses dramatic examples to explain what it is like to be bitten by a shark. Scientific information about the anatomy, habitats, behavior, and diet of the shark, along with fullcolor photographs and a Fast Facts section, make this a mustread for anyone who is interested in sharks and shark attacks.
