Now available in board book format! Canoes, speedboats, and more sail into this Big, Little Concepts exploration of boats, colors, and time from the award-winning author of Shape Up, Construction Trucks!
I spent the day
On the dock
And who zoomed up
At six o’clock?
A purple speedboat.
A day on the dock is never dull when boats of all shapes, sizes, and colors are zooming on by! Indulge your preschoolers love for boats while also subtly teaching them about colors and time! Who zoomed up at six o’clock? A purple speedboat! What boat will arrive next? What time will it be? Newly available in a board book format!
Victoria Allenby adds another kid-tastic instalment to the Big, Little Concept Books collection that has already graced story times with the Mathical Book Prize honor book Shape Up, Construction Trucks!, the sound-celebrating Listen Up! Train Song, and the most recent Look Up High! Things that Fly. Like its predecessors, this book features a closing note to caregivers with age-appropriate enrichment activities to extend both the learning and the fun.
