“Explores the concepts of floating/sinking with density, and some principles of boat shape, etc, and the illustrations feature diverse children, but it doesn't feel terribly engaging. The book itself feels awkwardly between a board book and a picture book in both size and sturdiness (8"x8" with thick paper pages that aren't all the way to board thickness).”
