Bookroo's summary

Join a lively crew on a whimsical sea voyage to uncover the secrets of pirate life. From capturing ships to the curious question of pirate hygiene, this playful journey is filled with colorful characters and delightful rhymes. Perfect for young adventurers eager to learn the ropes of piracy, this tale promises laughter and discovery on the high seas. Will you find out what it truly takes to be a pirate?

From the publisher

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.
