Rating: 4 out of 5

This is a cute 25 page story to show kids that everyone has something to offer.  Pirate Pete the littlest pirate saves the crew, after disobeying his captain and following part of the crew to buried treasure. The story also demonstrates that it is great to disobey orders and it pays to be a pirate!The illustrations are large bright, colorful and a little glossy.  The sentence to illustration ratio is about 3:1.  The book would have to be read to beginning readers as long words are often used.I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this pirate tale.Formatting IssuesI read this story on my 17" screen using the Kindle App for Pc, The Cloud Reader and the iPad.Kindle App for PC:  25 story pages with picture and wording on same page.  Has the smallest illustration size to page ratio than the other versions, but is still a decent size.Cloud Reader:  On the smallest margin size/smallest font, the illustration and wording are on the same page.  By the 3rd margin size, the illustration is on one page with writing on the next, for many of the pages.iPad:  On the next to smallest font, which is quite readable, about wording carries to the next page for about 1/3 of the illustration/wording segments.
