The lights & types of ships at night / words by Dave Eggers ; art by Annie Dills.

Eggers, Dave, (author.). Dills, Annie, (artist.).

Summary:

"You may have heard of ships. You may have also heard of the sea and the night. But did you realize there's nothing more beautiful than a ship and its lights on the sea at night? In warm and witty prose, this book asks the reader to consider the splendor of glowing lights cast by ships on a shimmering waterway. Meet a trawler, a paddlewheel ferryboat, and icebreaker, and something called a RoRo--all richly illustrated to illuminate the gorgeous explosion of color that only happen where boats and water and lights converge."-- Provided by publisher.
