Nuinui - SHARKS - Masters of the Seas from Prehistory to Today

Sharks have ruled the oceans for over 400 million years — long before the dinosaurs, and long after them too. Their story is one of the greatest survival tales on Earth.

This PNSO volume brings together scientific accuracy and stunning artwork to take readers on a journey through deep time: from the bizarre Helicoprion with its spiral saw of 40 teeth, to the colossal Carcharocles — three times the size of the great white — right up to the ocean's most formidable living predators. Every species is brought to life through compelling texts, up-to-date research, and a genuine focus on ecology and conservation. Because sharks, despite their fearsome reputation, are far more vulnerable than most people think.

The oversized format and 15 four-panel fold-out spreads turn every page into a visual event: hyper-realistic illustrations packed with detail, fact files, diagrams and surprising discoveries make this book a gripping read for children from age 5, young readers and adults alike. A gift that genuinely impresses at any age.
