A good story, great pictures
While we agree that the book is violent and not for everyone, if you have one of those kids that is fascinated by all of nature, including struggle and violence, and not just fuzzy bunnies, this is a good read. And while it is true that it's hard to believe that a 10-foot shark could down an 25m liopleuradon, well, everyone loves a good David-and-Goliath story. Plus, I...

Ultra super duper killing machine!
Silly book! Having a seven foot shark kill an Elasmasaurus is rather improbable, but then she kills an eighty foot Liopleurodon (actually she cripples it and the other predators rip it to pieces). Note the approximate mass for each of these animals would be shark 500lbs, Liopleurodon 60 tons. My kitty dragged down a bull moose the other day also. This is an...

this book is terrible for young kids,
By mom MD (Albuquerque, NM USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Jurassic Shark (Hardcover)
Gruesome, violent pictures and text. Definitely would not recommend it for the younger set (under 8?) Also, the quality of the information is subpar...does the author really know anything about these animals from long ago? Unlikely.
