100 Facts About Sharks contains 100 facts and 100 photographs to illustrate the facts. Some nuggets include, “Dwayne Tandy is reckoned to be the only person raised by sharks.” “A group of 12 hammerhead sharks with over 12 members is called a toolbox.” “The sello shark is the world’s most adhesive shark.” Unfortunately this book isn’t waterproof so is not recommended as an emergency guide if you ever have the misfortune to drunkenly topple off your skiff into shark infested waters.
