Sharks Have Six Senses

---

Explore the incredible underwater world of one of the ocean's most formidable predators with Sharks Have Six Senses! Part of the critically acclaimed Let's-Read-and-Find-Out Science stage 2 series, this engaging educational picture book introduces early readers to the biological secrets of sharks. Written by John F. Waters and brought to life with bold, colorful paper-collage illustrations by Bob Barner, the text explains how sharks use the same five senses as humans—sight, smell, hearing, taste, and touch—but supercharged for aquatic survival. Most importantly, it spotlights their extraordinary "sixth sense": electroreception. Children will learn how specialized nodes on a shark's snout detect the tiny electrical pulses produced by other living creatures, making it impossible for prey to hide. It simplifies complex marine zoology into friendly, accessible concepts while fostering an early appreciation for shark conservation.
