"Stunning illustrations grace this account. . . . A splashing success." -- As she traverses her ocean home, the great white shark's charcoal skin blends with the dark depths of the ocean, her white belly floating pale below. She carries seven pups in her belly, and her job is to give them the best possible chance at survival. Her journey will take her where she needs to go to stay nourished until she gives birth, far from shore. Set in a stunning underwater world, Claire Saxby''s signature poetic prose, offset by running facts, and Cindy Lane''s striking illustrations showcase the power and grace of one of the ocean's most misunderstood creatures.
