Another Children’s book that I enjoyed thoroughly. About a pirate that meets a strange yellow creature, and after his crew is killed, Captain Slaughterboard decides to retire and live peacefully with this animal. Not much of a point but an enjoyably story none the less. ( )

A truly wonderful picture book, Magnificent quirky illustarations by Mervyn Peake take a delightful story of pirates along a road thateventually leads at least one of them from a world of wickedness to one of love and peace ( )
