Never Bite Anything That Bites Back The Sixteenth Shermans Lagoon Collection

There's a lagoon called Kapupu in the sunny North Pacific just west of the Elabaob Islands in the Palauan archipelago of Micronesia. Sherman the shark, his wife, Megan, and a host of other ocean occupants call it home. Occasionally, the hairless beach apes (people) with their so-called civilized ways try to encroach on the Lagoonies' tropical paradise.

Jim Toomey was born and raised in Alexandria, Virginia. He launched Sherman's Lagoon in 1991, and was picked up by Creators Syndicate later that year. An engineer, a philosopher, a surfer, a scuba diver, and a sailor, Toomey lives in Annapolis, Maryland, with his wife and daughter.

He has been twice awarded the Environmental Hero Award, given by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration “for using art and humor to conserve and protect our marine heritage.”
