How to Be a Pirate by Sue Fliess - OPTIONAL

Fliess, Sue  How to Be a Pirate  Illustrated by Nikki Dyson  A Golden Book, 2014.  $3.99  PICTURE BOOK  Content: G.  

A pirate invites the reader to come aboard his pirate ship and he explains the different parts of his ship.  He also explains the behavior or being a pirate and their lack of manners.  Then the pirates go on a treasure hunt and in the end the book claims that the reader is a pirate now.  

There are 2-3 sentences per page and the illustrations are bright and cute.  There are a few pirate terms, like landlubber that little readers might not understand, but my boys like to get their hands on any pirate books and this is a cute simple introduction to pirates.  

PREK, EL (K-3)-OPTIONAL.  Reviewer, C. Peterson.
