Stephanie Bowman feeding eels at Pukaha

Stephanie Bowman is an artist who fell in love with the longfin eel when she visited NZ a few years ago. She then painted some beautiful but informative pictures and put them together with some text to tell the story of Velvet and Elvis - a longfin eel who makes her way back to the Tongan trenches and her elver who comes back to NZ. It is a childrens book which Stephanie hopes will be published before the end of the year.
