Deborah Hopkinson: Trim Saves the Day, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

One small kitten learns about the great big world as he sets sail with his fellow shipmates, animal and human, in this historical fiction intermediate reader.

Trim likes being part of the ship's crew. The captain says that everyone has a jobs they do alone and other times they help each other out. And if there's a big problem, then it's all hands on deck.

But what is Trim's job? He really wants to help, but everyone is very busy. Penny is helping the sailors mop the deck, so Trim decides to mop too. Swish! Swish! SWISH! Trim gets water everywhere. Jack is helping the captain steer the ship, so Trim thinks he can steer too. Whee! Whee! WHEE! But there's not enough room on the wheel. Doesn't anyone have a job for a kitten who really wants to help?
