A fascinating study of the ocean geography and currents with notes on endangered animals.

What ages would I recommend it too? – All ages. Children will enjoy the pictures and facts on endangered animals.

Length? – 221 pages, plus fact tables and an index.

Characters? – The oceans, coastlines, animals, currents and weather.

Setting? – Real world, Recent times.

Written approximately? – 1949.

Does the story leave questions in the readers mind? – Yes. What will happen in the future? Will the garbage be cleaned up? Will the animals of the sea replenish? What monsters that we don't know about, lurk in the deep, expanding territory as many of their predators have been decimated.

Any issues the author (or a more recent publisher) should cover? Maybe a few links to websites to research more in-depth, or keep up to date on issues discussed in the book.

This is a good book because it is well organized, well written, and has great visuals to support the text. The book starts of with a table of contents. This is a great feature to have because it allows a reader to go exactly where they need to. It then breaks each page into topics and subtopics so anything specific is labeled. The information is also explained in terms appropriate for the audience. If there is a term that may be unfamiliar or more difficult, it is defined somewhere on the page. The information is also explained with realistic visuals and photographs. For example, on the page describing the sharks' insides, there are diagrams and other visuals with captions to further explain.

The main idea of this book is to inform readers about sharks.

Oversize book. Incredible photography alongside clear explanations of biological processes and their part in disease. Fascinating photos of what we were taught in school.
