Ports are thriving hubs of activity, filled with an endless variety of boats, cargo, and workers. This book takes readers up to 8 on a journey around the globe's ports and features some of the world's most fascinating destinations. In colorful spreads, insights are provided for each port city: What are they eating in Hong Kong? What lives on the Nile River? What do the boats of Venice look like? From flora to fauna and from tropical climates to polar regions, this book is packed with vibrant, 1950s-style illustrations.
