From tugs to tankers, and kayaks to container ships, there's much to see and learn about the vessels that travel from the Golden Gate Bridge through San Francisco Bay. San Francisco Boats on the Bay: A Voyage in Riddles is filled with fascinating stories, facts, and questions about twenty-four boats and ships seen in these waters. Through challenging riddles and photos, readers are given clues to help them identify each vessel. Add to this the vocabulary of mariners, mooring locations and boat-related creative activities, and it's full steam ahead into a colorful world of nautical wonders. Written for children, ages 5 to 12, San Francisco Boats on the Bay will spark the curiosity, imagination and critical thinking of children of all ages.

After earning her Ph.D. in philosophy, Donna Benedetti taught philosophy to university and college students, and worked for gun control and youth violence prevention for many years. It was enough to convince her that developing life-long habits of questioning and sound reasoning must begin for all children at the earliest age possible. She now enjoys teaching critical thinking and reading in San Francisco. In 2012, she published TipTop Thinkamajigs and The Brooklyn Diet: Life's Tough But You Eat Anyway. She and her husband, Samuel Bloom, make their home in San Francisco.
