Working Boats: Salmon Troller (Board Book): A Look-Inside Book [Board book]

Look inside an amazing salmon troller in this sturdy board book shaped like a real boat!

Perfect for curious toddlers and preschoolers, this richly illustrated die-cut book brings the world of working boats to life through the story of Plucky the Salmon Troller!

Inspired by the bestselling picture book Working Boats, this engaging cross section book reveals a full day on the water. Page by page, children discover how things work aboard a salmon troller—from the engine room that powers the boat to the cozy bunks where the crew rests, and the chilly fish hold where the catch is stored (brrr!).

Clear, detailed illustrations show how every part of the boat has an important job, making this a fun and accessible introduction to fishing and maritime life. Durable pages and a unique boat-shaped design make it perfect for little hands and repeated reading—at home or on the go. All aboard the Plucky in this eye-opening die-cut board book for nascent engineers and tech-curious children. People prepare the old boat for the sea, refreshing its paint and tinkering with its engine before heading out in search of a catch. Cross-sectioned, x-ray vision peeks into what’s going on inside the boat’s various rooms pair well with the lovely images of the seascapes it travels; the aurora borealis dance overhead as the freezer is steadily stacked with fish. The illustrations have a pleasing vintage quality, with bold lines and a varied, muted color palette.
