...this early chapter book sports a whimsical, cavalier attitude. At its best, it gives readers pirates that are engaged in farcical mishaps and wild misunderstandings--in other words, fun. . . .Madcap illustrations perfectly capture the hijinks that insist upon ensuing. . . .there's enough lighthearted buccaneering on display that at least some readers will look for the other books in this series.-- "Kirkus Reviews"
