A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

In this riveting exploration of the world of fish, bestselling author Mark Kurlansky explains (with help from a graphic novel by Frank Stockton) why all of the world s fish could be gone in fifty years, and what this generation of kids can do about it. WORLD WITHOUT FISH issues a call to action to kids ages 10 and up the next generation to inherit the earth by outlining what will happen within the next fifty years if the ill effects of over-fishing, pollution, and climate change aren t addressed soon. In clear language that kids will understand, Kurlansky gives a step-by-step account of what would happen if fish became extinct and then outlines a plan for remedying the situation. As an extra bonus, the book includes a fifteen-page graphic novel (each page is a chapter opener) that tells the fictional story of the daughter of a marine biologist who witnesses the slow extinction of the world s fish in her lifetime.
