"A great message on a crucial subject, addressed to those who have a possibility of changing our world; our kids." Jeremy Irons, actor. " Finn the Fortunate Tiger Shark is a wonderful story of how we can all make a positive impact in our beautiful world. I hope it will inspire many generations of children and their parents to learn more about the oceans and their amazing ecosystems!" John Sauven, Executive Director Greenpeace "A very good book on a very important subject." Raymond Briggs, Author "When I was a small person, the planet and all its wonderful creatures weren't seen to be at risk. Now they are - to a quite horrendous extent. And young people today are really focussed on issues like ocean plastics, needing both the facts and the reasons to be hopeful. Georgina Stevens's wonderful new book provides both - with humour, insight and a powerful call to arms." Jonathon Porritt, Founder Forum for the Future. " Love this new childrens' book educating young people about ocean conservation" Richard Branson "Highly recommend reading this brilliant book with your children. Educating & inspiring us all to protect the ocean" Holly Branson "Our Oceans need our help, and Finn the Fortunate Tiger Shark is a beautiful book which will delight and engage young children on this critical issue. And when read by Jeremy Irons it sounds magical. Please buy the book and spread the word." Joss Stone Georgina Stevens is an environmental campaigner and writer.
