What's Explore a Shark About

Publisher Summary

A fascinating three-dimensional presentation provides the reader with an in-depth, hands-on exploration of a great white shark. In Explore a Shark, a detailed three-dimensional format gives the reader a hands-on exploration of the most feared predator of the seas–the great white shark. This unique “model” can be deconstructed and rebuilt layer by layer, system by system, just by turning the page, so the reader can see how each part of the shark’s body is connected to the others. By combining a 3-D model with informative text and illustrations, Explore a Shark helps children understand how sharks have come to rule the world’s oceans.

    The Creatives Behind the Book

      Author
      David George Gordon

      David George Gordon is the author of Explore A Shark and 19 other books about wildlife and wild places. Over the years, he’s written about everything from slugs and snails to the Sasquatch (aka Bigfoot) and from cockroaches to gray whales. His most popular title is The Eat-a-Bug Cookbook, published by Ten Speed Press. The subjects of his books may be offbeat but they are entirely factual—and fascinating. To his peers, David is known as the Godfather of insect cuisine. In his role as The Bug Chef, he’s shared his exotic cuisine with visitors to the Smithsonian Institution, Philadelphia Academy of Natural Sciences, Singapore Food Festival, Yale University, The Explorers Club and Ripley’s Believe It or Not! museums in Hollywood, San Francisco and Times Square. He lives in Seattle with his wife Karen and Wilbur, their pet tarantula spider.
