Tom Crestodina- Working Boats

Featuring exploded views of 8 brave working boats built to save lives, save ships, and raise wrecks, this stunning picture book dives deep into the everyday lives of those assisting with daring rescues at sea and the dangers they face every day.

Perfect for elementary-school aged kids (and their adults) curious about the mechanics of boats and the lives of people who work on boats, this eagerly anticipated follow up to Working Boats will look at the brave watercraft who ensure the safety and rescue of people at sea, and even those who safely salvage shipwrecks for valuable parts and cargo.

Tom Crestodina has been working as a fisherman in Alaska for over 20 years and studied marine engineering at the Seattle Maritime Academy. After his first child was born, he began making cutaway drawings of the vessels he was working on as a way to connect with his child while he was at sea. He now documents the maritime trades in his art, and his work is carried in shops and galleries along the Pacific coast. He lives in Bellingham, WA, with his wife, Ania, and their two children. You can find out more about his art at TheScow.BigCartel.com.
