I spent many awesome day underwater with this book! Its thrilling and exciting and also has many legit facts. My teacher was amazed when it came to learning about the sea and said I was a natural. I loved this book and I think other kids should read it.

This book is good for people who like sharks. I am not so interested in sharks. The book has lots of facts about sharks and there are many pictures. If you want to learn more about sharks then I recommend this book but I found it kind of boring.

This book is about the amazing, you guessed it, SHARKS!!! This book teaches you about the secret life of sharks, facts about sharks, and lots more stuff about sharks! This is a good book to read when you are bored. I would recommend this book.

The Ultimate Book of Sharks is another great book from National Geographic. It is filled, from cover to cover, with interesting shark facts and information. I especially enjoyed how the author portrayed sharks as living creatures and not just deadly beasts. There are beautiful pictures of sharks on almost every page. The book is beautiful and detailed, informative and fun. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to learn a lot more about the misunderstood sea creatures.

I liked this book because it was really well written. I'm not a big lover of sharks but if you are i would definitely recommend this book to you.

This is the ULTIMATE BOOK OF SHARKS! If you love sharks, you will absolutely love this book in very way, share, and form! This is Shark Week in one awesome book!

The Ultimate Book of Sharks is truly the ULTIMATE book of sharks. Every turn gives you a new interesting and unforgettable fact about sharks. And every turn has an wonderful photograph of this amazing sea creature. This book is the for sure guide to sharks and once you start reading and taking it all in its hard to stop. Once again National geographic does a wonderful job of jam packing a book with a vibrancy of facts and pictures. I recommend this book to any reader especially shark lovers.

The book is really good and I like the pictures. But, sharks aren't my favorite topic to read about. I liked all the facts and the segments called "Skerry Encounters" where the author talks about times when he was with sharks. I highly recommend this book to people who like reading about sharks and fish.

This was one of my first national geographic books to read at Barns and Noble!! It is a very fun book and this book tells you a lot about deep sea! I discovered a lot of different types of sharks, they were mind blowing!! I was highly intrigued by the amazing facts in this book! This book was why I really started to like national geographic!!
