Book Reviews of Manfish: A Story of Jacques Cousteau
Book Review: Really beautiful book...
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a wonderful book - beautifully written and gorgeously illustrated. It takes you on an almost dream-like, very lovely, poetic journey that includes the ocean, Jacques Cousteau's life, fish and ocean creatures, nature - and having dreams as a child and working throughout life to make them come true. This book should appeal to parents as well as children. I highly recommend it.
