Product Description
It's the first day at PIRATE SCHOOL for Ziggy, Smudge, Carkella and Flo and they have lots of new things to contend with. Their headteacher is the scary Patagonia Clasterbotton and they have to take lessons include walking the plank and hand-to-hand fighting. When out on the pirate ship a storm blows up, resulting in the children having to rescue Patagonia when she's swept overboard, and they learn that really Patagonia is not so scary after all!

Format:Paperback
The Pirate School series by Jeremy Strong are great for developing readers. The characters such as Patagonia Clatterbottom, the headteacher are fun colourful and silly. The story line is easy to follow and entertaining. The colourful illustrations are excellent. The story is of Smudge, Flo, Ziggy and Corkella going off to pirate school, they are taught by headteacher Patagonia Clatterbottom who likes to see herself as a fierce, terrifying headteacher. Chaos normally developes, in this story its when her grandchild Minnie is swept over board in her pram. Miss Fishgripp ends up wearing a jellyfish on her head and Mrs Muggwump ends up dangling from the mast.
Its a funny, engaging story and my 6 year old daughter laughed all the way through it. She will be rereading this book for years to come.

I have read three of this series to my 6 year old boy - He loved all of them and found them hilarious. Where else would you find characters like Miss Snitty, Miss Fishgripp, and of course, Patagonia Clatterbottom. It's so British, so original.
Format:Paperback
Another great read from Jeremy Strong - great for kids from 6/7 up to 10 - either for reading themselves or being read out loud
