Customer Reviews

I don't get tired of hearing this and I'm an adult!

My 16 month and 3 year old love, love, love this book. When Little Treasure whoops "Swoosages" and the Pirates fall about laughing, so do they! It's a unique, witty book that my 3 year old repeats verbatum. The CD is 30 minutes long and instantly quiets them on trips. Highly recommended.

fantastic

My 5 1/2 yo daughter LOVES this book. She listens to the cd that came with it over and over for days now. Highly recommended!

Swossages!

My boys 3 and 6 LOVE this book. Some of the humor is a little off kilter and different but if you have boys or girls who enjoy that sort of thing, they will enjoy this book. It is about a pirate crew on the Golden Behind who find a "treasure" and take turns "babysitting" in some very interesting ways. I can always tell when my husband reads this bedtime story because I can hear them all laughing from the bedroom. If you are experiencing bedtime book fatigue get this one and enjoy bedtime reading. Another good one is Skunks by David T. Greenberg. I still laugh when I read that one:)
