Support for long-term classroom planning and professional development. Information covering important topics for today's educators and parents. Outside and inside. The author's goal in the series is to help students understand abstract concepts by discussing the topics, illustrated with color photographs, in a conversational tone. This book uses detailed color photographs to show the internal and external features of sharks.
Readers learn about the sharks' skin, skeleton, and internal organs.
The photographs show the sharks either in their natural environment or displaying their organs, such as the intestines, eyes, and liver, in dissection. The book discusses that some sharks lay eggs in egg cases and that others have live births. One photograph shows baby thresher sharks inside their own compartments with other eggs all around them. The reader learns that these eggs will be consumed by the growing babies. A pronunciation guide, list of shark facts, and glossary are included.
