Customer Reviews

Great age appropriate for the pirate loving little ones!

My 3 year old son and 2 year old daughter love the Pirate Pete books, but this one is by far thier favorite. The whole series is great with just the right mix of adventure, Pirate antics and even some girly characters -- Sea faries! The illustrations are top quality and delightful. These books are perfect -- no horrible imagery that would create nightmares-- or subject matters at are too mature for you little ones -- these are great for 6 and under. Well done!

Awesome!

These books by the Kennedy siblings are the nicest books ever for kids! The illustrations are just beautiful -- I wish I could buy the artwork! And the stories are adictive -- my son loves them! I wish there were more of them!!

Great

My son loves all books about pirate Pete. He is in his pirate stage now, therefore we have a lot of pirate books. But about Pete are the favorite.

Sweet Pirate Book

When my three year old son took an interest in Pirates, I was concerned about the violence in the topic. The Pirate Pete series are sweet books that lack the violence found in other pirate books. My son loves the series and so do I. Cute, cute, cute...
