Summary
Every volume of Science Comics is a complete introduction to a particular topic-dinosaurs, coral reefs, the solar system, volcanoes, bats, flying machines, and more. These gorgeously illustrated graphic novels offer wildly entertaining views of their subjects. Whether you’re a fourth grader doing a natural science unit at school or a thirty-year-old with a secret passion for airplanes, these books are for you!This volume: In Sharks, we explore one of the most unfairly villainized and Hollywood-famous underwater predators. With their 400-million year history, their vital role in maintaining the ecosystem, their incredible specialized adaptations, and their various unique species, there is a lot more to sharks than just their ferocious jaws.

Critics Review
Praise for the Science Comics series:
“This series–written by a handful of authors–seems determined to offer a useful introduction to anything a curious grade-school student might wonder about. The insight behind these books is a powerful one. So much information about the world around us is actually better conveyed visually, through charts, illustrations, and sequential panels, than purely using words.” –New York Times
“Like having a Time Life Science Library in comic books. Which is awesome!” –Popular Science
Praise for Science Comics: Sharks:
“Detailed illustrations complement the text beautifully, with close-ups of the various features of different sharks as well as useful diagrams and charts. An accessible and inviting work, recommended for most libraries.” -School Library Journal, starred review
