A pirate Dad! A one legged, eye patch bearing, pirate Dad? Arrrrrhh, ‘tis Captain Pike and his band of sea dogs! Baby’s Mum deserves a break so Captain Pike is lumbered for the day, and he’s not entirely sure what to do. Then, oh no, the ship is attacked by Captain Whitebeard, but it’s ok - Whitebeard loves babies.
This is a funny book, filled with busy drawings, lots characters and carefully labeled objects (jars on a shelf read: biccies, parrots eggs, treasure spaghetti). This should shiver the timbers (and funny bones) of most kids. Good to see that even hardened pirates can show their sharing caring parent side.
