Happy Birthday, Eugenie Clark!


It's the birthday of shark scientist Eugenie Clark.  She would have turned 96 today and according to biographer, Heather Lang, she probably would have still been scuba diving.





Eugenie was a force of nature and Lang spent time with her when writing her picture book biography, SWIMMING WITH SHARKS.  Lang even tried scuba diving during her research.

Read about this groundbreaking scientist in Lang's biography and in Jess Keating's, SHARK LADY.  Compare and contrast these terrific biographies.






Here are two more books for budding oceanographers!
