Descrição da editora
When a family on a sailing outing gets stuck in a surprise storm, there's only one boat tough enough to handle the rocking waves and howling winds: Blue Boat! Completing the primary-colored series of books that have won fans across the country, the team behind RED TRUCK and YELLOW COPTER present their third rhyming book about a vehicle who saves the day.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Hamilton and Petrone follow Red Truck and Yellow Copter with the story of Blue Boat, an anthropomorphic tugboat with a sweet smile and a female captain at the helm. Receiving a distress call from a family stranded on a red sailboat, Blue Boat and the captain attempt to save the day before a brewing storm makes the waters impassible. Petrone's smooth, chunky shapes evoke the feeling of bathtub toys, counterbalancing the growing tension. Hamilton, meanwhile, creates a pleasing mix of rhyme, alliteration, and sound effects: "Ding! Ding! Ding!/ Decks awash!/ Clouds churn black./ Rescue vessels/ must... turn... back.../ all but Blue Boat." Readers who are entertaining dreams of captaining a ship someday will celebrate the brave efforts of this "rough, tough tugboat." A board book edition is available simultaneously. Ages 2 5.
