More on Sharks

Today, we continue with the book – Big, Bigger, Biggest Shark.

We learned that some of the sharks like the coldest water at the Atlantic area while some prefer warm tropical water. Some sharks like the Portugeese sharks like to be at the very deep part of the ocean while a Lemon Sharks like to be a the shallow part of the sea. Mako shark swims very fast while nurse shark swims very slowly.

The book brings out comparison of different species of sharks. With this opportunity, we went through some opposites that mentioned in the book: -

-         big x small

-         fast x slow

-         deep x shallow

-         cold x warm
