Great read aloud
This story is about the life of young Jaques Cousteau. It tells about how he learned to love the ocean and to love film, leading to his impressive future.
As a non-fiction book there is not exactly a moral writen into the story. However it is inspirational to see a childhood passion grow into a career. The story is a great example of not giving up, hard work, and activism.
