Book Review Book Review: The Night Time Pirates & other Pirate Book titles

Book review, play ideas and a short list of suggestions for more Pirate book titles ..

It's Pirates !
(and very unusual pirates, at that.)

Other good pirate books iunclude:

Patrick the Pirate Pig - a very cute hardboard book with a great 'you can do whatever you want' tale to it and ... if Henrietta Hen can be a Parrot, Patrick Pig can certainly be a pirate ...



* Once upon a tide - Tony Mitton
This book has two front cover versions!!
