   Sharks live in the water.  Sharks are fish.  But
most sharks are not like other fish.  Big sharks
never sleep.  Sharks will sink if they stop
swimming.  Most fish lay eggs.  But most shark
babies are born alive.  Sharks can swim very
fast.  Sharks have big teeth.  Their teeth are very
sharp.  They have many rows of teeth.  If a
shark loses a tooth, a new one will take its place.
Sharks use up many teeth each year.  Sharks
come in many sizes.  The dwarf shark is the size
of your hand.  The whale shark is longer than a
bus.
