I love a good pirate story (a throw back to my childhood, growing up in the 80’s and adoring the movie “Goonies”) and this one is truly fantastic. If anyone would ask me I bought this book for my young daughter *cough* but truthfully? I bought it just as much for me as for her! Chock full of brilliant rhyming, wonderful characters and fabulous artwork, you cannot go wrong here.Moreover as a woman, and the mother of a daughter, I loved that Truedessa such a huge part in the great escape, even saving her beloved Captain Pat at one point. There was no overly cliché damsel-in-distress here, no sir!A truly remarkable book - I cannot say enough good things about it!
