Books for under fives about boats?

[hellokittymania]

What books do your children enjoy about boats? Any ideas? It can be a story involving both, or a very basic fact book about them. I just need to find something my friends son will like.

Are any of these suitable

My son loved “busy harbour” for ages but it is board book with just a few words.

I remember being read this one (think you can still get it second hand) www.amazon.co.uk/Bertha-Tanker-Listen-Mother-Liane/dp/0563101695?tag=mumsnetforum-21.

My son loved Lost and Found by Oliver Jeffers when he was around 3 or 4 years old. It involves a boat, though it’s not the main focus.

Scuffy the tugboat: it’s a little golden book. It’s a really sweet one and my kids love it.

Boats Are Busy by Sara Gillingham

Thank you, these are great.

The Lighthouse Keeper's Cat series? I don't specifically recall any boats in them, but there surely must be!

Rosie and Jim, who live on a canal boat . My dd was enchanted by these books

Brilliant boats by tony Mitton. There's a whole series of transport ones that we had hours of enjoyment from.

Michael Rosen, The Bus Is For Us - loads of different forms of transport including a couple of boats.

The Little Red Lighthouse and the Great Gray Bridge. Loved this as a kid, particularly the illustrations of the ships on the Hudson River.

Mr Gumpy’s outing

Brilliant boats by Tony Mitton, as pp suggested. We also liked Lost and found.
