Surprising Sharks - Thryft
Surprising Sharks - Thryft

Not all sharks are what you think.

"Surprising Sharks" offers a different angle on these often-misunderstood creatures. It's a delightful read for anyone who enjoys nature, is curious about marine life, or just loves a good surprise. Nicola Davies' approach to sharks is both educational and playful, making it an engaging read for a wide audience, including children and adults who are young at heart. It could make you see sharks in a whole new light.

Description

Some sharks are no bigger than a chocolate bar, some have built-in fairy lights and most wouldn't go near a human, even if you were wearing a sign saying 'dinner'! So, if you thought all sharks were giant man-eating killers, you're in for a surprise.
