Bookroo's summary
Captain Crave, a daring pirate, has everything a buccaneer needs—except a pet. His quest for the perfect animal sidekick takes him and his crew from beaches to zoos, causing chaos at every turn. As they encounter critters of all kinds, will Captain Crave finally find his match? Dive into this swashbuckling adventure filled with humor and heart to discover if the captain's search ends in success or surprise.
From the publisher
Ahoy! Pirates, pets, and puns run amok as a swaggering, softhearted captain takes off on a mad search for the perfect animal sidekick. Big, brave Captain Crave can check off most items on the handy Be Your Best Buccaneer checklist. He has a pirate ship, an eye patch, courage and daring, and more. Only one thing is missing: Captain Crave doesn’t have a pet. Arrr! Shuck me an oyster and set sail for land! The captain and his crew race and chase critters of every size and shape, from the beach to a farm to the zoo to a pet shop, causing a commotion wherever they go. But just when all seems lost, the search party stumbles on the most perfectly perfect pet for Captain Crave. Has he finally met his match? Aye-aye!
