Review Quotes

"An amusing romp that will have landlubbers and scurvy sea dogs alike giggling."
--Kirkus Reviews

"[A] lively tale about friendship [...] Inventive pirate-speak--'pirate-y poopie head!'--and bright colors complement this whimsical story."

About the Author

Mike Allegra sailed into uncharted writing waters to create an all-dialogue story with an unexpected pirate character: a little dotty, well-meaning, and unusually patient (anyone would snap if a penguin trashed their ship and spit out their cracker). He's written a number of other books for children, including Sleepy Happy Capy Cuddles (Page Street Kids) and Scampers Thinks Like a Scientist (Sourcebooks). He also works as an editor and a creative writing teacher. Visit his website at www.mikeallegra.com and say, "Ahoy!"

Jenn Harney had a blast creating the art for this story, because who doesn't love pirates and penguins? Together at last! She's illustrated many other children's books, including Hornswoggled! (Page Street Kids), and even authored a couple as well. She lives in Ohio with her family and their corgi named Steve.
