The Ultimate Book of Sharks is filled with amazing facts and pictures! Every page you see in this book is guaranteed with a new fact, a new picture, and color. I was not interested in sharks that much, but when I read this book I was amazed by the pictures of these beautiful sharks. I also was very interested in the facts, and this is actually the first time I've picked up a shark book in 3 years. This National Geographic book is one of the best I've probably read so far. I rate it 5/5 and recommend it to ages 7-16.

I will read any book about sharks, but the ULTIMATE book of sharks? Sign me up! I learned that sharks aren't as mean as people think, and some sharks even show fondness to humans.

I love National Geographic so much. This is my favorite book from them. I love sharks as well, so I really liked this book. I liked to quiz my sister on them, so I recommend this book to everyone.

I LOVED THIS BOOK!! As many people know, I have been a National Geographic fan for quite a while. I love reading the books with my friends and learning a billion new facts, all at once! The moment of going, "Woah, I don't believe that is true!" or, "NO WAY!". This book was an amazing chance to bond with my friends and family, learn amazing new facts, and bring up my grades in science!!! If I had to rate this book from 1 to 100, it would TOTALLY be 100! Now, I know facts confuse a lot of people. Don't worry though, the structure of this book is amazing! It tells facts in an amazing strategized way, where you forget you have ever been confused! I recommend this book to anyone that likes facts, fun, and adventure in your mind. HAPPY READING!

The Ultimate Book of Sharks is one of the best shark books i have ever read. Its a great book with lots of cool facts i didn't know about sharks.

The Ultimate Book of Sharks is one of my favorite books! Because sharks are in it.[sharks are my favorite animals]I I enjoyed it not because of sharks but the facts about them.

The Ultimate Book of Sharks is one of many animal books I like. Because sharks are one of the coolest animals I know. And I really enjoyed reading it.

I have always been interested in sharks especially during the summer and going to the beach. The Ultimate Book of Sharks was very cool and I learned a lot.

This is a great book. I love to read about animals and I think it is a fascinating book. It tells things that I never new before.

Oh my gosh! If you are an animal lover like me, you will enjoy this book! The photos are the best part. I'm glad to see they included my favorite shark - the Hammerhead! This is the kind of book I will go back and look at several times- It's that good!
