Product Description
Fearsome and fascinating, sharks have an enduring appeal for kids. With this imaginative three-dimensional model-in-a-book kit, the great white can be easily built, deconstructed, and rebuilt layer by layer until each of its elements — cartilage, dentition, fins, gills, and then cardiopulmonary, digestive, and acute sensory systems — is understood. Included are discussions on interesting topics like shark fin soup, shark liver oil, and shark populations. With Uncover a Shark, kids can get up close and personal with a great white without getting bitten!

 Another Great Book August 15, 2008
I havne't personally seen this book since I had it shipped to my granddaughter who is 7 years old. She LOVES it, she has especially enjoyed the different layers of the body that the book shows, she is learning from the book. Parent's were happy with the quality of the book.
Fascination galore!! September 17, 2007
My son received this book as a gift and it has provided many hours of study and fascination with sharks. He took it to share one day in his kindergarten class and it was a hit!! All the parents wanted to know where I got it so they could buy similar items for their kids. I refered them to amazon or ebay. The body pieces are fragile though. We've lost the muscles and his skeleton is loose, but it's only because it's been used to death. We can still read about the sharks. You could glue the pieces back in. Either way, it's a great book!!
Great model! October 22, 2006

Although it says that this book is appropriate for kids aged 9-12, our five year old loves it! Each page shows a layer of the sharks body and explains how it works. There is also information about other sharks in general. The 3-D model captures our son's imagination. He particularly thinks it's funny that the shark has tires in its tummy. We highly recommend any of the books in this series.

This book has a three-dimensional model of a shark and lots of colorful pictures. It teaches you all about the Great White Shark.The most interesting part of the book is about the muscular system of the Great White Shark.
It is a really cool book!
