I Ship: A Container Ship's Colossal Journey

I Ship: A Container Ship's Colossal Journey by Kelly Rice Schmitt

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


A fascinating book about the journey of a container ship; I found this book engaging with the author's playful language and the details of the illustrator's pictures. I appreciate the intention behind this book, bringing awareness to kids that everyday items sometimes come from distant places. My favorite spread shows stacks of cargo boxes aboard the ship, full of stuff: Halloween items, bananas, paint supplies, etc ... Plenty to see and discuss! Complete with extensive back matter and a seek-and-find activity; this book is a stimulating read for all kids!
