Tuggy the Tugboat
Published 3 months, 1 week ago
Description
Tells the story of Tuggy, an experienced tugboat who is eventually retired from heavy work because his steam engine needs an expensive upgrade to a diesel engine. Instead of selling him, Captain Larson keeps Tuggy, and the story details how Tuggy and Captain Larson take on a new role: offering river excursions for children after giving a group of boys a memorable birthday ride. The illustrations frequently feature vibrant colors and scenes of river life, depicting the fictional Katahoochie River, Sleepy Creek, and the surrounding city harbor and shipyards. The book essentially traces Tuggy's transition from a hard-working vessel performing rescues and heavy towing to a beloved excursion boat for children.
