Sailing boats, rowing boats, ferries and motor boats: find them all and how they work in this picture book. Then take a cruise on an ocean liner, crewed by animals, in a jolly, rhyming journey.
Boats, Ships, Submarines - and Other Floating Machines
This book answers such intriguing questions as why big ships float and submarines sink… how yachts use the wind to sail… and what instruments a ship's captain uses on the bridge.
Genevieve is a converted French fishing boat, manned by British officers and a small crew of free French ex-fishermen, armed only with a flame-thrower and few arms. They carry out their daring attack on the German boats off the Brittany coast. Every man involved in the raid is an unlikely hero in his own way.
