Exclusive Preview: ‘The Little Book of Knowledge: Sharks’

May 27, 2018 by Brigid Alverson   Leave a Comment

IDW has been publishing a series of French imports titled The Little Book of Knowledge, and unlike the similar books you may have read as a child, they cover a wide range of topics, from tattoos to New Hollywood. Their latest one, though, is about sharks, and it is (the publisher assures me) “perfect for kids.” Check out our exclusive preview and see for yourself. The hardcover graphic novel goes on sale in comic shops on May 30 and in bookstores on June 26. Here’s the solicit info:

The Little Book of Knowledge: Sharks
Bernard Seret (w) • Julien Sole (a)
Since the turn of the century, scientists have been going shark-crazy! Now, dive into a world beneath the waves and learn all about one of nature’s most mysterious creatures. They’ve fascinated mankind forever, but we still have a lot to learn, and 16% of shark species have been discovered in the last 15 years! Written by experts in the field and drawn by fans that know the material, each Little Book is perfect for the established enthusiast and burgeoning amateur alike.
HC • FC • $14.99 • 88 pages • 5-1/5” x 7-2/5” • ISBN: 978-1-68405-066-6
