A Pirate's Guide to First Grade

48 pp. | Feiwel | August, 2010 | Trade ISBN 978-0-312-36928-6 $16.99
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Greg Ruth. In pirate parlance, a boy narrates his first day of school. The full-color illustrations include ghost-like sepia-toned pirates mirroring the boy's actions throughout the day, romping through lessons and bus rides with swords in hand and a parrot in tow. The whole is a bit forced, but swashbuckling pirate aficionados will gladly jump onboard this "jolly boat" "double quick." Glos.
