Product Description:
These animal pirates decide that they need more than the letter R (R's not enough. / We need other letters / to help make us tough), so they set off to find the remaining 25. Led by a crocodile captain (with a hook, no less), the band of buccaneers searches far and wide to complete their mission. Some letters are found near items that begin with that letter, e.g., an anchor, gold, or a parrot. Others are in situations that involve the letter in action -- Q is questioned, U is underwater. Still others are described, as in the case of the nimble N. Some alphabet books struggle to incorporate X, but as any young pirate knows, X marks the spot on a treasure map. The rhyming text is well-suited to reading aloud, and the colorful cartoon illustrations encourage children to participate by finding the sought-after letters, which appear in bright blue uppercase in each scene. This alphabet adventure is sure to capture audience attention at a pirate-themed story hour, and it will be enjoyed by individual readers as well.
