In the vein of This Plane and This Train, Paul Collicutt explores all things seaworthy in This Boat, with vessels that "break through ice" and "[sail] on top of a bridge." The informative end papers showing specific boats (e.g., the USS John F. Kennedy aircraft carrier, the SS Titanic) are a bonus. Copyright 2001 Cahners Business Information, Inc.
PreSchool-Grade 1-Collicutt follows the template of his This Plane (2000) and This Train (1999, both Farrar) to portray all sorts of boats, even one in a bottle. The detailed, realistic, brightly colored paintings create ample interest for revisiting, and the simple text presents formulaic repetition, making it useful for beginning readers. Plenty of sea is covered, and the glimpses will encourage further study of particular boats since readers receive only one fact (and one view) per page. A story that will gratify young sailors and transportation buffs.Gay Lynn Van Vleck, Henrico County Library, Glen Allen, VA Copyright 2001 Reed Business Information, Inc.
