This superb start to the series of children’s story books is a colour introduction to great new Characters Children from 4/8 will love and identify with, as the stories unfold and slightly older Children will enjoy the quizzes and questions as they learn about the crew and animals on the canal banks.
Who’s who on the crew is the first title, by way of introducing all the main parts of a boat and using the characters to show how boats worked long ago, before trains and auto mobiles when loads of everything was moved around on Narrow boats,
It is not a history lesson, more about entertaining children, but with a reference to how things were done, in a funny and satyrical way.
