## Description

One of New York Times ' Twelve Books for Feminist Boys and Girls! This is the story of a woman who dared to dive, defy, discover, and inspire. This is the story of Shark Lady. One of the best science picture books for children, Shark Lady is a must for both teachers and parents alike! An desertcart Best Book of the Month Named a Best Children's Book of 2017 by Parents magazine Eugenie Clark fell in love with sharks from the first moment she saw them at the aquarium. She couldn't imagine anything more exciting than studying these graceful creatures. But Eugenie quickly discovered that many people believed sharks to be ugly and scary―and they didn't think women should be scientists. Determined to prove them wrong, Eugenie devoted her life to learning about sharks. After earning several college degrees and making countless discoveries, Eugenie wrote herself into the history of science, earning the nickname "Shark Lady." Through her accomplishments, she taught the world that sharks were to be admired rather than feared and that women can do anything they set their minds to. An inspiring story by critically acclaimed zoologist Jess Keating about finding the strength to discover truths that others aren't daring enough to see. Includes a timeline of Eugenie's life and many fin-tastic shark facts! The perfect choice for parents looking for: Books about sharks Inspiring nonfiction narrative books Role model books for girls and boys Kids STEM books

Review: Beautiful book, great science, inspiring story, awesome representation - Eugenie Clark's story is fascinating and inspirational, and the illustrations in this book are gorgeous. There's even a little bit of fun shark science to learn in this book too. It's also really nice to have a book about a scientist who's half Asian and female - if there's another children's book out there with that type of representation, I've yet to find it. One of the little girls we gave this to was super excited to see someone like her in a kids book!
Review: Great story and message - Perfect balance between facts and story telling. My 2.5 triplets ask for Shark Lady multiple times a week!
