It's terrific!” —Elizabeth Shreeve, award-winning author of Out of the Blue, On an Ocean Journey, and other books for young readers

“What a wonderfully weird and wild ride through an alphabet of chondrichthyan evolution! I love how Ray Troll blends fossils, evolution, and one of the oldest and strangest of family trees with humor and science. This book is a mind-bending walk through 400 million years, showcasing the diversity of traits in one of Animalia's oldest lineages. The artwork is brilliant. SO MUCH FUN!” —Dr. Melanie Hutchinson, Senior Bycatch Mitigation Scientist at the Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission

“Jawsome shark facts!” —Lily Williams, critically acclaimed children's book author and illustrator

Sharkabet is a fun, unique way to look at the world of sharks and the alphabet at the same time! Ratfish Ray covers some of the most amazing of the 400+ species of shark on the planet—and some extinct sharks too. The pictures are brilliant and every shark fact is clearly among the most fascinating of all shark facts known to humans!” —Chris and Martin Kratt, TV hosts of Zoboomafoo and Kratts’ Creatures

“[This book on sharks] is the BEST I have seen for kids and adults. Few shark books combine humor, truth, art, and a generous whetting of curiosity.” —Leighton Taylor, marine biologist and discoverer of the megamouth shark
