Pugwash Aloft
John Ryan
Hardcover
(Frances Lincoln Children's Books, Nov. 1, 2008)
As Captain Pugwash and his crew strike up the music for singing practice, Cut-throat Jake and his band of rebels lurk nearby. Then, disaster strikes! Jake and his men board the Black Pig, capture the crew, and send the Captain scuttling up the nearest mast for safety. How will the self-proclaimed bravest buccaneer of them all get out of this one? Luckily, Tom the Cabin Boy has a clever plan that just may have the crew singing a rousing victory song. With its amusing, easy-to-read text and witty pen-and-ink illustrations, Pugwash Aloft is as fresh and lively as the day it was published.
