I'll just begin by saying I love pirates. I've always loved a good pirate story - and sure, this one is probably better suited for my kid (he loves pirates too) but it's still a fun read. Pat Hatt took me and my son both to sea on a swashbuckling adventure - There's bad pirates, there's good pirates, there's pirate pets, there's a damsel in distress. That's all of the ingredients for a fun story! Mix them up a bit and bake for 10 minutes... okay, really, it's sun a fun book.The book isn't that long, at about 44 pages, so it won't take that long to read. Again, it's main audience will be your children, and they'll love it. The story is rhymes all the way through, and they'll eat that up when you read it aloud to them (Some people may think that's hard to do for 44 pages, but Pat seems to be a pretty clever fellow.)The story itself is quite fun and it begins by following the bad pirate (No, it's not captain Hook!) who's managed to acquire a dear damsel in distress that seems like she needs a good rescue. Pirate Pat and the gang come to the rescue and then the story gets good as the adventure unfolds!Definitely grab this fun read and give it a go with your young ones. It'll be a swashbuckling great time!
