The Lovereading4Kids comment
It is true that author Jeremy Strong knows just how to make children laugh. This book follows the hilarious exploits of the pirates at pirate school and the theft of their food! In a chaotic plan involving dolphins and other sympathetic sea-life, can the pirates get their grub back? Jeremy Strong won the Children's Book Award in 1997 with his book ‘The Hundred-Mile-An-Hour Dog’ and you can see why with his unique brand of ridiculousness.

Patagonia Clatterbottom is very cross. Other pirates have ambushed the Pirate School's food.

Luckily the children have a plan.

You give me age appropriate ideas of books I can read and buy for the children and find out what other children their age think of them too.

I am so pleased to have signed my kids up as they are reading a much wider range of books and even choosing books out of their comfort zone.
