Bookroo's summary

Pirate Pete storms into Seabreezy Library, convinced his treasure map leads to hidden riches. But Library Lou knows the real treasure lies within the books. As Pete and his parrot, Igor, navigate library etiquette and literacy, they discover unexpected treasures. Can Lou guide them to the true riches of reading before chaos ensues?

From the publisher

At Seabreezy Library, things were just right. / Booklovers were cozy. The sky was blue-bright / when–Shiver me timbers!–through Seabreezy’s door / stormed big Pirate Pete and his parrot, Igor! Argh!! Things are looking–and smelling!!–a little fishy at Seabreezy Library. When the big X on Pirate Pete’s treasure map leads him and his parrot-sidekick Igor to believe buried treasure is hidden at the library, the patrons are quaking in their shoes. But never fear! Library Lou, Seabreezy’s librarian-extraordinaire, is as cool as a cucumber and knows how to handle an irate pirate or two. She knows exactly where the treasure is buried. But first she needs to help Pirate Pete and Igor get a handle on their hygiene, brush up on library etiquette, and then tackle learning their letters. And that will lead them to the treasure that can always be found at the library.
