This hilarious, fact-packed information book will have young readers laughing as they're learning. Quirky illustrations and bite-sized text provide an accessible and entertaining introduction to piracy through the ages, including notorious buccaneers, gruesome pirate punishments, buried treasure and shipwrecks. Random fact: 'Pirates actually wore eye patches so that one eye was constantly adjusted to seeing in the dark, which meant they were immediately ready to fight below deck as soon as they boarded an enemy ship. So despite what some may think, most pirates still had both their eyeballs!'
