I received an electronic ARC from Boyds Mills Press through Edelweiss+。Remarkably similar to Little Golden Book's Little Toot。 Even the name is similar。 However， the message to show grit and believe in yourself holds true for another generation。 I received an electronic ARC from Boyds Mills Press through Edelweiss+。Remarkably similar to Little Golden Book's Little Toot。 Even the name is similar。 However， the message to show grit and believe in yourself holds true for another generation。 。。。more

Thank you to Netgalley and Astra Publishing House for this ARC。 This was a cute little story about a tiny tugboat being brave。 I love how the book recognized she was scared but that you can feel scared and still be brave。 Adorable illustrations as well， and I love a good rhyming book。 I recommend and will definitely be purchasing for our library。

This is way too similar to Little Toot。 Is it out of copyright or something？
