Just right for aspiring pirates, this illustrated activity book includes bright and distinctive illustrations and descriptions of different types of pirates--the short pirate, the evil pirate, and lady pirates. This delightfully engaging handbook includes a pirate dictionary, keys to a secret pirate code, and a treasure map. The accessible activitiesand humorous text provide children with plenty of details on the world of pirates.
There is no point in hiding it: we love Mnica Carretero. Her Pirate Handbook is a colorful, sunny, very interesting picture book that illustrates what a pirate needs and what their oath is like. pekeleke.es
