Surviving Sharks by Allan Zullo About My Book This story is about people who survived attacks from some animals. Even though the title says Surviving Sharks, it is also about other animals like bulls, monkeys, bears, etc. This story has 11 chapters and 151 pages. Each chapter talks about different attacks from different animals. Some got injured very badly but they still survived. All of the attacks are real. In my opinion this book is very interesting and can help people because if it happens to you, you will know what to do. WHAT I KNEW BEFORE I STARTED 1.
I knew that sharks don’t mean to eat humans, they think they are seals.
2. When you put a shark on its back it would not move

What Does Success Mean to Me and My Book. Success in my book means to survive. After getting attacked by an animal all they want to do is survive. Everyone in my book succeeded because they all survived attacks. To me success is to live and become a football/soccer player. To become a football player you need a lot of hard work and if you make it you will succeed.

A SECTION OF YOUR BIAS ARTICLE AND HOW IT IS BIAS “What would you say is the most dangerous animal on Earth? Sharks? Snakes? Humans? Of course the answer depends on how you define dangerous. Personally I’ve had a thing about sharks since the first time I saw Jaws. But if you’re judging by how many people are killed by an animal every year, then the answer isn’t any of the above. It’s mosquitoes. When it comes to killing humans, no other animal even comes close.”
