Description
Contains facts about killer whales and great white sharks, comparing such aspects as their sizes, brain structure, and abilities.
Description
The killer whale has a huge jaw with about fifty teeth, each almost four inches long! But if the killer whale loses a tooth, it will never grow back. The great white shark, on the other hand, has several rows of razor-sharp teeth, and it can lose more than 3,000 teeth in its lifetime, growing them back again and again. But teeth aren't everything, as readers will soon realize. This easy-to-read book lets kids guess which ocean predator really rules under the waves!

This is an informational book all about facts on a killer whale verses a great white shark and if they were paired up who would win? During the reading it gives both pictures and facts about both animals, where they can be found, what they eat, families they have, teeth they have and how powerful

they both are. It is a great book for students to make predictions on who would win and the ending may surprise you. Good to have in a classroom library and for a science lesson on marine life. Show Less
