Gaston Lays an Offshore Pipeline

The irrepressible, friendly Gaston the green-nosed alligator helps some new friends lay a pipeline in the Gulf of Mexico. Stirred by curiosity, Gaston follows a huge barge carrying pipes, which leads away from the lazy cool of his bayou home. Outfitted in a hardhat and steel-toed boots, he soon joins a crew and finds out that the life of an offshore oilman is not easy. Gaston understands that the need for oil is important. He enthusiastically accepts every assignment and works as a welder, diver, and rigger, proving that alligators, too, can contribute to solving the energy crisis.Rice, James is the author of 'Gaston Lays an Offshore Pipeline', published 2007 under ISBN 9781589805101 and ISBN 1589805100.
