What's This Book About

Publisher Summary

Dive into the underwater world of the hammerhead shark! This book’s large, up-close photographs will impress readers as they learn about the hammerhead’s size, appearance, and special features, such as its unusual cephalofoil. A labeled diagram gives readers a full-body view of this skilled hunter. The hammerhead’s diet, life cycle, and habitat are also introduced, and a colorful map shows where hammerheads live. Readers will also learn about the hammerhead’s special senses such as its lateral line, and how this schooling shark uses them to outlast humans and other threats. A facts page, bolded glossary terms, and an index supplement the easy-to-read chapter text. Checkerboard Library is an imprint of ABDO Publishing Company.
