A Julia Eccleshare Pick of the Month August 2019 | Interest Age 5-8

Pirates ahoy! This is a lively, swashbuckling story with great characters and a pacey story – all vibrantly illustrated in an attractive and easy-to-read, small size book. Barbarous Bertha is a fearsome pirate as well as the guardian of a wide stretch of emerald green sea and the Purple Shell Islands which are home to both people and special animals and birds. It is no surprise therefore that her daughter Molly Rogers is never going to stand for anyone who threatens to invade the islands or destroy their inhabitants. When reports come of Captain Firebird doing damage to Monkey Skull Island, Molly Rogers enlists all of her best animal and bird friends – including Kracken the octopus – to chase down Captain Firebird and to make sure he never does anything so dastardly again.

Fern Tolley

A great book about Molly and her mum going to Monkey Skull Island and defeating pirates.

It was a great book. In the story, Molly and her mum rescue a man from sharks. He lives on Monkey Skull Island and loves animals. Pirates attack the island to get the treasure. Molly, the man, and the animals work together to defeat the pirates. I thought the jokes were very funny. I really liked the names of the island and characters. I wished there were more crew members in the story because then it would be more exciting. I liked the adjectives and the descriptions of the people and the island. I really liked the part about the Kraken, it was both exciting and funny.... Read Full Review

A lovely adventure story with a lot of girl power!

Molly Rogers is a lovely book filled with vibrant characters and illustrations. Anyone up to mischief better beware when Molly Rogers and her mum are around. In this book, Molly and her mother, Barbarous Berther find out that Monkey Skull Island is being destroyed by Capain Firebeard on his quest for buried treasure. It's up to the mother and daughter duo and their friends to save the island and it's inhabitants.

A swashbuckling story with adventure and vibrant illustrations, I think that this will be enjoyed by a whole crew of readers.... Read Full Review
