resilience, and faith of this young preacher will inspire a new
generation of readers as they see how God's love can pierce the

saving. Let this powerful story show the young people in your life
how God can use anyone with faith to do the impossible.
The panic-filled summer of 1916, when multiple deadly shark attacks
shocked the nation, is chronicled in this gripping addition to the
New York Times Best-Selling What Was? series. On July 1, 1916,
witnesses watched in horror as twenty-eight-year-old Charles
Vansant was attacked and killed by a shark in shallow water off
Beach Haven, New Jersey—the first recorded shark attack in
American history. Scientists claimed a shark could not be
responsible, but more deadly attacks soon followed along the Jersey
Shore and up the freshwater Matawan Creek, setting off a nationwide
panic that led the White House to declare a “War on Sharks.” In
this illustrated book, which features 16 pages of black-and-white
photographs, readers will learn about the likely culprit (or
culprits) in the attacks—the great white shark and the bull
shark—and how the bloody summer of 1916 would change how people
viewed sharks forever.

The What Do We Know About? series explores the mysterious, the
unknown, and the unexplained. Are there really aliens visiting
Earth to observe and interact with humans? In 1961, Betty and
Barney Hill claimed to have experienced a bizarre night that
included extraterrestrials, flying saucers, and a few lost hours
during which they could recall very little until they underwent
hypnosis. Their mysterious story was just the first of many
that have been told by people who have since come forward with
their own similar experiences. Although there are thousands of
people who claim to have experienced alien abduction, much of the
world remains skeptical. Is alien abduction a real phenomenon that
has affected people worldwide or just an imagined shared
experience? Could the US government be working to cover up these
stories? Here are the the facts about what we really know about
Alien Abduction.
