Manfish: The Story of Jacques Cousteau

by Jennifer Berne

Manfish: The Story of Jacques Cousteau Cover

 

Staff Pick

Jacques Cousteau made a living swimming with the fishes. His movies and TV shows captivated the world and educated people about the wonders of the sea. Manfish gently describes the life of this extraordinary man through lovely paintings, interesting fold-outs, and good storytelling. A great gift for ocean enthusiasts young and old.

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Before Jacques Cousteau became an internationally known oceanographer and champion of the seas, he was a curious little boy. In this lovely biography, poetic text and gorgeous paintings combine to create a portrait of Jacques Cousteau that is as magical as it is inspiring.
