Boats on the Water - Children's Literature

One of the “Vehicles on the Move” series, this book is a treasure for both young and old, whether landlubbers or seafarers. In addition to photographs of vehicles on water, the author embeds into each page the explanations, examples and definitions that develop both reasoning skills and expanding vocabulary. The photos provide a context in which a student within a broad age-range can infer the meaning of undefined or unfamiliar words, such as that of a sailor using a winch (page 27).
