About this product
Product Information
Ages 4 to 8 years A beautifully illustrated biography of Eugenie Clark, a scientist as impressive as the sharks she studied. At nine years old, Eugenie Clark developed an unexpected passion for sharks after a visit to the Battery Park Aquarium in New York City. At the time, sharks were seen as mindless killing machines, but Eugenie knew better and set out to prove it. Despite many obstacles in her path, including trying to break into the scientific field as a woman, Eugenie was able to study the creatures she loved so much. From her many discoveries to the shark-related myths she dispelled, Eugenie's wide scientific contributions led to the well-earned nickname Shark Lady, as she become a fixture in the world of ocean conservation and shark research. Teachers' notes available here 'A tribute to the courage and indomitable will of the renowned ichthyologist. This eloquent profile follows Clark from a childhood visit to an aquarium through her demonstration that sharks can actually be trained and so are not mindless killers as widely supposed.' - Kirkus 'Boldly hued and fluidly graceful, illustrations from Marta Alvarez Miguens, complete with fun facts and a timeline, creatively convey Eugenie's courage and determination as she dives into books, laboratories, education, and open waters to share her love and knowledge of the often misunderstood predators.' -Foreword ReviewsProduct Identifiers
