Bouncy verses combine with fun illustrations to make the perfect handbook for pirate wannabes. Come along for a shiver-me-timbers sea voyage and find out all about pirates! Any young pretend pirate will want to know such things as how you get to be a pirate how pirates capture a ship and of course whether those rascally oceangoers take baths. The stars of this book are a crew of lovable fellows jauntily painted in bright splashy colors and brought to life in delightfully funny verse.
