Description:
"If you could have any ocean animal's superpower, whose would you choose? If you could shapeshift like a giant Pacific octopus, you could squeeze through even the smallest gaps. If you could snap your claws like a coconut crab, you could slice through sheets of metal. An awesome book of ocean animal superpowers!"--

Review Quotes: Praise for What If You Could Sniff Like a Shark!?"Appealing equally to curiosity about the real world and to readers' sense of play. . .A winning mix of solid fact and undisguised fun."--Kirkus "Kids will get a kick out of this great mix of illustrations and animal facts. Libraries that have the previous titles in their collection should add this one to the set."--School Library Journal Praise for What If You Had Animal Teeth!?: "Though perhaps not the best choice for the nightmare-prone, this will surely satisfy animal enthusiasts and trivia lovers, and dentists and parents will appreciate the mention of ways to keep human chompers healthy." -- Booklist"It's a hilarious and instructive combination that makes it clear just how variable and individually suited this aspect of anatomy is, and the art takes the concept and runs -- well, chomps -- with it." -- Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books"Delightful illustrations and factual presentations of animals make this a valuable purchase for early elementary classrooms and libraries." -- Library Media Connection"The lively text, photographs, and quirky illustrations charmingly tell a great tooth story." -- International Reading Association
