Really fun illustrations with tongue-in-cheek humor.

The illustrations (by David "No!" Shannon) are fantastic and the story is good, too. Any little boy who dreams of being a pirate will enjoy this.

I give this book a low rating for one reason and one reason only: I am NOT a fan of the artwork. It's nothing against David Shannon. Or maybe it is. It just doesn't wow me like I want it too
