This is a laugh-out-loud guide to the weird and wonderful world of sharks - from sharks that can walk on land, to sharks that glow in the dark, to sharks that fart to swim deeper (yes, really).
Did you know...
- There's a species of shark that can swim faster than a jet ski?
- Or that some sharks like eating vegetables?
- Or that playing 'Baby Shark' is the most effective way to annoy a shark?
(OK, maybe that last one isn't scientifically proven...)
From the creators of popular webcomic The Life of Sharks, this is a funny and almost 100% factual guide to the ocean's most misunderstood creature.
Perfect for landlubbers aged 7+ who want to learn more about their finned friends!
