Inside Out Sharks ... cue the Jaws theme....

I received an DIGITAL Advance Reader Copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. From the publisher -

Journey inside a shark and live to tell the tale! With Inside Out: Shark, you’ll take a three-dimensional tour through a great white to learn about the unique bodies of these eating machines. Why are shark eggs called “mermaid purses”? What in the world are “skin-teeth”? Do sharks deserve the nickname “man-eater”? Find the answers to these questions and more in this action-packed book, which dives deep under the surface to explore the world of these astounding animals. From the eerie goblin shark to the wide-eyed hammerhead to the most feared shark of them all, the great white, see the world from a shark’s-eye-view—and get an in-depth look at these most mysterious and misunderstood predators.

I was ten when JAWS came out --- I read the book (secretly and furtively as the book belonged to my mother) and I am going to grossly report that when Peter Benchley wrote about how the shark chewed up and digested the naked swimmer from the beginning I actually threw up. I refused to go in the lake that summer lest there be sharks as well in the Great Lakes ... there was NO changing my mind..

This book was interesting to review because the digital copy did not have the "cut out section" that is in these books --- BUT my nephew was absorbed and so into this book that I have already ordered it (and Inside Out Egyptian Mummy, Inside Out T-Rex and Inside Out Human Body) for him for Christmas! They are wonderfully detailed and I enjoyed them as much as he did!

Great gift for any kid (or adult) in your life who has the gift of curiosity!
