Why read it?
1 author picked Manfish as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
It’s a little unbelievable to think how much we have learned about the ocean since Jacques Cousteau’s time, primarily because of his inventive spirit and incurable passion to share his explorations with the rest of us. How lucky are we?
Manfish is a great introduction to his many discoveries and life story for kids.
