This was a cute book, with a nice storyline and great illustrations. This book could help inspire children to develop a love of the ocean or at the very least see sharks differently.

Eugenie is a girl who loves learning about sharks and studying zoology. Many people doubted her because she was a woman, but she did not let them defer her from her dreams. She made great discoveries in her field. I love this book. Its a great way to open up a conversation about marine biology or to always follow your dreams. Great pick!

#FebruaryFeels Day 23: Here‘s another fierce female known as the “Shark Lady” who went on to pursue her #passion, and proved a lot of people wrong with her scientific discoveries. As a child, Eugenie became enamoured with sharks. Evidently, she is no ordinary girl. Eventually, she took it upon herself to commit to knowing more about them by “deep diving” into books and actual studies about sharks. My review: https://wp.me/pDlzr-jGZ
