Book Reviews of How I Became a Pirate
Book Review: A piece of Art in more ways then one....
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this for my 4 yr old daughter who has a kinda "thing" for pirates. She and I were so pleased. The illustrations are captivating - especially the two page spread where he says "Thats how I became a Pirate", his arms flung out as he shouts to the world at the front of the boat. Whimsy, fantasy, the culmination of any child's dream.....I saw represented on this page.....As an adult I just found the illustrations excellent and downright funny at times...
My daughter loved it and so do I!

This is a wonderful book. This about a little boy that was building a castle when he saw a boat.Jeremy Jacobs became a pirate that day.Jeremy Jacob went with the pirates. When they were eating, they talked with their mouth full. They could sleep any time they wanted.They didn't have to brush their
teeth unless they wanted.They could wear pajamas if they wanted or they could sleep their clothes. This is a great book for all ages. It was exciting, funny, and just plain fantastic. You must read this book!!!!
Book Review: My son cried since the boy was kidnapped!
Summary: 1 Stars
This is a very cute book and well written with one major flaw...the litle boy is kidnapped by the pirates!!! My 5 year old son started to cry when the little boy went with the pirates since he knows that it is never OK to go somewhere with another adult and not tell your parent nor should other adults ask a child to help them without their parents knowledge.
Please be careful when reading this book to young children as it does not practice "stanger danger" and could be very scary to some kiddos.
Book Review: Cute, engaging, fun
Summary: 5 Stars
Jeremy, probably feeling a little neglected on the beach, goes off with a band of pirates. He feels his parents won't mind as as long as he is back in time for soccer practice the next day. Initially, he finds this adventure to be exciting, liberating and great fun. Soon he realizes a pirate's life is not exactly ideal. There's no tucking in, no books, and no goodnight kisses! Of course, a storm must swoop down on the ship and the treasure is in peril. Jeremy has the ideal solution, which you'll love.Book Review: Fabulous book for kids and their parents!
Summary: 5 Stars
Once in a while, a great children's book comes along that gives you the parents as much joy in reading it as the kids get in hearing it. This is that kind of book! The artwork is incredible, and the story darling, completely couching the "moral" in good, clean hilarity. May your children give you plenty of "pirate kisses" after buying them this book.
I saw the cover of this book and had to bring it home. My children are getting to old for these books, but their Mama isn't!
