Explore the Deep: Shark Week for Kids 

The author of the Mac B series and They Call Me No Sam! has reeled in a shark-tastic book about our sharp-toothed friends in the deep blue. From hilarious shark jokes to the wildest, most jaw-dropping facts, this is an essential book to have on hand this summer.  

Wild Sharks! is a one-stop shop for our minnow readers. By employing key vocabulary with fun factoids about eight different kinds of sharks, this is a great way to teach little ones to read and introduce them to a wild, wacky underwater world. 

From the author-illustrator of Random Acts of Drawness, Brady Smith delights with his whimsical and educational picture book, I’m Getting a Shark! This is one of those books you’ll want to keep coming back to and you’ll impress yourself with how many fin-based facts you find.

A gorgeously illustrated book that you’ll love to see on your own shelf just as much as your kid’s, Smart About Sharks is a fantastic resource for kids to learn about why sharks are such misunderstood creatures.  

The best kinds of stories are ones that sound like fiction but are completely true! National Geographic underwater photographer Brian Skerry takes readers through waves of incredible shark stories from close encounters to unexpected friendships. The best part? These are all short enough to read right before bedtime.
