This little story is the adventure of a boy pirate, his first mate Teddy, and the rest of his crew: a dinosaur and a toy car. They sail to a desert island where they find a difficult puzzle map leading to treasure. I enjoyed the world of make believe of a little boy. The voice of the adventure maintained that childlikeness throughout, which made the story a little tedious when coupled with all details that a child would use in real life make believe play that aren't really necessary to story writing. As the reader, I was little let down with how things played out in the cave with the scary roar belonging to a creature we never meet. All my complaints aside, my boys, 3yo and 22mo, enjoyed their mommy time and all the little extras I throw in when we read together, so it wasn't horrible, just needs a bit of touching up.
