Sharks and dolphins both have torpedo-shaped bodies with fins on their backs. They slice through the water to grab their prey with sharp teeth. But despite their similarities, sharks and dolphins belong to different animal classes: one is a fish and gets oxygen from the water and the other is a mammal and gets oxygen from the air. Marine educator Kevin Kurtz guides early readers to compare and contrast these ocean predators through stunning photographs and simple, nonfiction text.

"Listen, guys, this is not a college. It's a job. We get to training camp, your ass has cramps, I'll cut you in a minute." --Jimmy Johnson Love him or hate him, Jimmy Johnson's headline-making new gig with the Miami Dolphins made him football's comeback kid of the year. In this no-holds-barred book--the first all-access look at a coach in action since John Feinstein's #1 bestseller A Season on the Brink--you'll get an up-close, powerfully personal, and brutally honest chronicle of Johnson's first year on the job . . . on and off the field. After legendary Dolphins coach Don Shula was pushed into retirement, former Dallas Cowboys coach Jimmy Johnson came back into the spotlight, and with him, his famously uncompromising attitude and standards of perfection and professionalism. For Shark Among Dolphins, Johnson allowed award-winning reporter Steve Hubbard to sit in on team practices, player meetings, postgame speeches, and much more: to see it, hear it, and most important of all . . . tell it, exactly the way it is. Shark Among Dolphins reveals insider insights into Jimmy's feud and frustration with Jerry, Barry, and the 'Boys. It details his speeches that sparked upsets over New England and Buffalo, and his draft and personal decisions, from axing selfish stars to anointing rookies like Zack Thomas. It shows why corporations pay $40,000 to hear how this master psychologist molds and motivates people to win championships.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Inspired by a profound experience swimming with wild dolphins off the coast of Maui, the bestselling author of The Wave set out on a quest to learn everything she could about dolphins—the other intelligent life on the planet. “Part science, part memoir, part impassioned plea for change.” —People Susan Casey’s journey takes her from a community in Hawaii known as “Dolphinville,” where the animals are seen as the key to spiritual enlightenment, to the dark side of the human-cetacean relationship at marine parks and dolphin-hunting grounds in Japan and the Solomon Islands, to the island of Crete, where the Minoan civilization lived in harmony with dolphins, providing a millennia-old example of a more enlightened coexistence with the natural world. Along the way, Casey recounts the history of dolphin research and introduces us to the leading marine scientists and activists who have made it their life’s work to increase humans’ understanding and appreciation of the wonder of dolphins.
