In the spirit of The Little Engine That Could, this sweet picture book introduces Little Ferry, who yearns to be more like the faster or stronger boats in the harbor only to find out her uniqueness can be her strength. Little Ferry feels like no one notices her. She isn’t strong like Tugboat or fast like Speedboat or graceful like Sailboat, the boats everyone loves to watch. But Little Ferry is special, too! She’s patient and careful and always on time. And when disaster flares on Wildlife Island, Little Ferry finds that her quiet traits are the very ones that will help her finally stand out and save the day.
Little Ferry yearns to be more like the other boats in the harbor who are faster or stronger, but her uniqueness proves to be her strength when an emergency erupts.
"The church originated in the itinerant ministry of a Civil War veteran named L. T. Nichols, whose controversial preaching led to his being shot and wounded. Originally known as the Christian Brethren, Nichols and his followers relocated from Oregon to the Midwest in 1883 and some years later embarked on an evangelistic ministry that entailed traveling up and down the Mississippi River system on a large steamboat. In 1904, the group moved to its present home of Rochester, New York, from which its missionaries traveled throughout the United States and Canada. They took the name "Megiddo" from a strategically located city in ancient Israel, which to them signified a place where soldiers of God gathered to renew their strength and courage."--BOOK JACKET.
The Ferry Stories is a fairytale book set by a small mysterious river, with a small ferry to cross it. It contains the stories of the generations of ferrymen and ferry women who live there, as well as the travelers that pass through.This book was inspired by a small ferry that crosses an ocean channel in Ketchikan, Alaska. The ferry must be used by all who need to fly as the city is on one island and the airport is on another one. I travel on the ferry often because I work at that airport, and have for over a decade. One day while waiting to board the ferry a thought occurred to me: many stories feature a boatman or a water crossing, but you rarely know anything about these faceless ferrymen and their lives.I have had a love of fantasy and fairytale from my youth, and many of my favorite stories came to mind featuring ferries, bridges, barges, lake boats, ocean crossings, or really any crossing. In each story it is the crossing that is of importance and the main characters are the ones traveling from one place to another.In this book the ferrymen themselves are the main characters, and their crossings are both literal and metaphorical. No person has heard more stories than the ferrymen, and their lives are more fulfilling than you might think.
