Welcome to Litsy!

I just found this in a classroom library and read it aloud to the 1st graders. My library is closed while I cover the class. No substitutes. It was fun explaining how I watched Jacques Cousteau on TV when I was their age. I forgot that he invented the aqualung. He was a household name! I need to get a copy of this for our library.

Manfish: A Story of Jacques Cousteau was written by Jennifer Berne. This book shares the story of Jacques Cousteau who loved to explore. This book inspires children to follow their hearts and do what they love!

#BoundTogetherJune Day 18: I love everything about Man #Fish: from the typography to the overall layout and design, from the lyrical text to the luminous art that made me feel as I was breathing underwater. Jacques Cousteau was born in France. From the time that he was a little boy, he was already in love with the water. My review of this gorgeous picturebook biography: https://wp.me/pDlzr-8ye

Biography and was written in 2008. This story is about the life of jacques cousteau and his love of water and the oceans. Ever sense he was a little boy he loved being in the water. He and friends would dive down and see what the ocean had in store for them. He would bring down his camera and record everything he could for films and was a advocate for cleaning up the oceans.

"Manfish" (B) written by Jennifer Berne and illustrated by Eric Puybaret is a nonfiction picture book telling the story of Jacques Cousteau and his contributions to marine biology. The pictures show how Jacques grows up to merge his love for inventing, film and the ocean. He invents the aqualung and brings underwater footage to the world.
