Whale Shark: The World's Biggest Fish

24 pp. | Bearport | January, 2007 | Library ISBN 978-1-59716-397-2 $21.28
(4) K-3 SuperSized! series. Stock photos, maps, and a simple text introduce the habitat, diet, physical features, life cycle, and behavior of the world's largest fish, the whale shark. Comparisons are straightforward ("A whale shark is about as long as a school bus"), and despite some cutesy text ("The whale shark...is one of Earth's oldest friends!"), the book clearly presents very basic information. Reading list. Glos., ind.
