Languages : en
Pages : 19
Book Description
This picture book is a great teaching tool for your little one and for you. It is like a dictionary of sharks for everybody. The pictures are clear, the colors are nice, and the sharks are clearly labelled with its name. If you are ready to challenge your mind and prove to everyone that you are the king of shark knowledge, then pick up this book and prepare for the ultimate trivia experience. Test your fact knowledge as you look at some of the most captivating facts about sharks. Do you know that? The whale shark is the largest fish. No fish is bigger than this 40-foot-long whale shark. The 30-foot-long basking shark is the second largest. Bull sharks are one of the only species that can live in fresh water. Sharks seem to be more threatened by vertical height than length, and quick, sudden movements are more likely to provoke attack. There is a shark called the Dumb Shark. It is also called the False Cat-shark. It can grow up to 10 feet long and lives in deep, cold waters. The pelagic thresher shark's tail is nearly as long as its body. Nearly half of this shark's 20-foot length includes its tail. Whale sharks don't chew their food. Inside a whale shark's mouth are 3,000 to 5,000 teeth, arranged in rows. However, each tooth is so small it is useless for biting or chewing. The jaws of bigger sharks are about twice as powerful as the jaws of a lion. Basking sharks suck in more than 10,000 quarts of plankton-filled water an hour. Baby sharks are born with sharp teeth and the ability hunt right from the start. Sharks can see almost as well behind them as they can in front. As you read this book over and over to your child it won't be long before they are the ones pointing to the picture and telling you what it is. The author Katy Gleit wrote this book for her own two grandchildren. In "Sharks: 101 Illustrated Fun Facts " your children are given a well-selected knowledge along with entertaining information about these creatures.

If you are ready to challenge your mind and prove to everyone that you are the king of Tyrannosaurus Rex knowledge, then pick up this book and prepare for the ultimate trivia experience. Test your fact knowledge as you look at some of the most captivating facts about Tyrannosaurus Rex. Do you know that? Tyrannosaurus Rex was taller than a modern day giraffe and measuring in at half the length of a small blue whale. Tyrannosaurus Rex measured up to 13m (42ft) in length, 4m (13ft) at the hip! The skull of a Tyrannosaurus Rex alone measured up to 1.5m (5ft) long. They weighed 8 tons (more than a garbage truck). Tyrannosaurus was cannibalistic. The calculations suggested that adult T. Rex could have generated from 35000 to 57000 newtons of force in the back teeth, or the equivalent of three times the force estimated for a great white shark, 15 times the force of an African lion, 3 1/2 times the force of an Australian saltwater crocodile and around 7 times the estimated force for Allosaurus. The average Tyrannosaurus Rex lived about 30 years. The first, fragmentary fossils of Tyrannosaurus Rex were discovered by the famous paleontologist Edward Drinker Cope in South Dakota in 1892. Tyrannosaurus Rex was named in 1905 by by Henry Fairfield Osborn. The largest specimen of Tyrannosaurus Rex nicknamed “Sue” was found in South Dakota in 1990. T. Rex probably had about 200 bones, roughly the same as us. T. rex was a relatively smart dinosaur. Although the ratio of brain size to body mass was very small for T. Rex, it was larger than most other dinosaurs. T. rex's brain was larger than the human brain, but the cerebrum (the part of the brain that we use to think) was tiny. T. Rex went extinct during the K-T mass extinction, about 65 million years ago. As you read this book over and over to your child it won't be long before they are the ones pointing to the picture and telling you what it is. The author Katy Gleit wrote this book for her own two grandchildren: In " Tyrannosaurus Rex: Illustrated Fun Facts " your children are given a well-selected knowledge along with entertaining information about these amazing creatures.
