Did you know that sharks are among the oldest creatures onearth?
They swam through the primordial oceans long before therewere
dinosaurs. Many legends surround these animals with theirfearsome
sharp teeth. But how dangerous are sharks really?
In The World of Sharks, you will not only find out how sharks were
able to survive so many other animals and how many differentspe-
cies we know today, but also a lot about their very specialteeth, their
peculiar lateral line organ, and excellentsense of smell.
However, many sharks have hardly been researched tothis day-
their habitats are too deep in the sea for us humans toreach. This
book is the starting point for so much more to exploreabout sharks. -
What is a tree and how does it actually grow? How does a treechange
over the course of the seasons and what phases does it gothrough
during its entire life? What happens in its crown, trunk orroots if
we look closely? Which animals live there and which forestshave
developed in the different regions of the world?
The Little Book of Trees takes children into the world of thesefasci-
nating plants. A small arborology presents different types oftrees
and last but not least, the book shows what greatthings you can do
with trees (you can climb trees, build a treehousein their crown, or
lie in their shade and relax...) and familiarobjects that have their
origin from trees (instruments, paperplanes, books...). In the tree
quiz on the last double page,children can apply their newly
acquired knowledge. -
Most living things are active as long as the sun shines on the sky, but at dusk, when the light dims, life continues. The moonlight illuminates the Earth, plants come to life, animals awaken and some organisms glow like jewels in the dark. For these creatures, plants and natural phenomena, the night falls and another day begins.
