(3) K-3 All Aboard Reading series. Illustrated by Larry Day & Larry Day. Beginning readers are introduced to the first all-iron warship built--why it was needed, its brief stint at sea and eventual sinking, and how it was found and brought back to the surface. Illustrations rich with black line illustrate the text and provide diagrams of the Monitor and the Virginia, its Confederate rival.
Reviewer: Jeannine M. Chapman
