Capucilli, Alyssa Satin Mighty Tug, illustrated by David Mottram.

Mighty Tug helps the boats in the New York
harbor. He cheerfully goes about tugging
boats to their slips or guiding them through the harbor. He also helps in an emergency when a boat is
on fire. At the end of the day he makes
a wish that the harbor will be peaceful.
The illustrations in this book are super cute. Mighty Tug is a smiling hard working tugboat who is confident
in his duties and loves the harbor and other ships. My only issue with the story is that the
rhyming is all over the place-sometimes it rhymes and reads smooth, other times
it almost rhymes and some pages don’t rhyme at all. This is a cute book for boat lovers and the onomatopoeia's are fun to read aloud.
