Hammerhead Sharks

(4) K-3 Zoom In on Sharks series. These basic introductions to shark species offer cursory facts about appearance, habitat, food, and life cycle. Simple, choppy texts for emergent readers are adequately reflected in the accompanying photos. Each book's appendix includes comparisons of the species' average weight, length, or height to some hard-to-grasp items (e.g., at 5,000 pounds, "a great white shark is heavier than four soda vending machines"). Glos., ind. Review covers these Zoom In on Sharks titles: Great White Sharks, Hammerhead Sharks, Mako Sharks, Sand Sharks, Tiger Sharks, and Whale Sharks.
