Every Here Has a There: Moving Cargo by Container Ship

Description

Follow boxes of books through the supply chain, as they travel from truck to ship and then across the ocean to a bookstore (and to you)! 

Every here has a there, every up has a down, and every far has a near. Hop on board a big cargo ship as books printed in Asia head onto the water and toward the United States!

Chock-full of fun facts and a unique overview of opposites, Every Here Has a There will fascinate and educate young readers on how their treasured books get delivered to their favorite local shelves. Also great for new readers, as its simple, engaging vocabularly offers oodles of options for spelling lists and sight words.

Given the ubiquity of container transport, this arresting effort is a necessary addition to things-that-go shelves.
