I love when someone can bring a character to life. It’s even better when they can take a real persona and make their story interesting and entertaining for children. Shark Lady does just that. It is a short picture book about how lots of study, and being confident in yourself can make your dreams come true. In this case Eugenie loved sharks. By studying them, she could show the world that they are not vicious animals, but wildly diverse fish. I like the info bits at the back, but my favorite thing has to be the timeline at the back of the book that has moments of great significance to Eugenie Clark. Very well done, and perfect for shark week and shark enthusiastic kids.
