But when he sails to Alaska for the first time, he finds out what being a tug really means… Short rhythmic phrases on each page alternate with narration in Tug’s voice, leading readers through his experiences from splashing into the water for the first time to a daring rescue.Trade Review“The anthropomorphized boats have plenty of personality, and readers who study the expressions on the container ships will be rewarded…A brassy, assertive fellow—young readers in the middle of their own power struggles will relate.” —Kirkus Reviews “A feel-good story about a small individual overcoming obstacles.” —School Library Journal “Tough Tug sends positive messages about responsibility and helping others. Repeated phrases on each spread—Slide and Splash, Swirl and Twirl—get exaggerated font sizes and lend a fun rhythm to storytelling.” —Mom Read It “This delightful book is sure to capture the spirit of young children.

The bright illustrations feature determined, anthropomorphic ships. Readers will feel energized after reading this one.” —Unleashing Readers “Tough Tug would be a welcome book for young readers navigating new places or experiences and for those excited by boats and vehicles at home and in classrooms.” —Celebrate Picture Books “The facial expressions on the boats in Tough Tug are exquisite!
