In straightforward rhyming text ("Icebreakers smash an icy floe; / penguins dive down deep below"), this book presents a variety of watercraft: tugboats, yachts, trawlers, ferries, aircraft carriers, etc. There's lots to see in the humorous vintage-looking mixed-media illustrations featuring clip art, old papers, and original drawings. Two double-page-spread layouts are vertical.
