Seas Need Sharks!

Sharks have inhabited Earth's oceans for at least 400 million years, but these vital apex predators are being driven to extinction by overfishing, pollution and other human activities. The survival of sharks is critical to the health of our ocean ecosystems. All proceeds from the sale of this book are donated to organizations dedicated to protecting these amazing animals. This children's book contains paintings of sharks by the author's grandfather, Bai Ji Kong, a contemporary Chinese artist born in Shanghai in 1932. Kong has long been regarded as a key figure in China's contemporary art movement. His works are included in the permanent collections of The Art Institute of Chicago, Harvard University, Lincoln Center, The National Art Museum of China, The Shanghai Art Museum, Smith College Museum of Art, The Soyanzi Art Museum in Tokyo, The Peace Museum in Hokkaido, Japan, and the Kimpusen-ji temple in Nara, Japan-a designated national treasure.
