Treasure Ship

Treasure Ship

by Walter Wick

A pirate ship and a chest of gold take readers on a journey through time that leads to the location of purloined treasures. Beginning with a zoom of a gold coin, photographs pull back to reveal the story of the coin's travels from the hull of a pirate ship in the 1700s to the shore of a beach town today. Full color.

Amazing photos accompany a fun search-and-find game by Walter Wick, the creator of the New York Times-bestselling "Can You See What I See?" series and the photographer of the enormously successful "I SPY" series.

Praise for Treasure Ship

"The rhyming, find-and-seek games will entice kids to look for the minute details in each packed spread. The search is not always easy, which will stretch out the enjoyment as kids pore over each page. Another winning installment in the popular series." — Booklist

"The latest in Wick's long-running series centers on the story of a wrecked ship, the Bountiful, with luminous results. Striking photographic compositions illuminate the ship and its treasure; in all, they contain 200+ hidden objects and were created using digital photography with miniature and full-scale sets. Little by little, the camera pulls back to show wider views, revealing that the Bountiful is actually a ship in a bottle, in a knick-knack shop, in a seaside town, pictured in a postcard. The entrancing, detail-rich visuals and ingenious twist will likely stir readers' imaginations." — Publishers Weekly
