Augusta's pirate-captain father insists that pirates must be rotten,
sneaky, and brainy. But Augusta prefers fanciness to foulness. Despite
the crew's opposition, she sets out to prove that a successful pirate
can be fancy, sneaky, and brainy, too.
In Bad Pirate, unlikely buccaneer Augusta Garrick that integrity pays
off, even when it means running against the pack. In Good Pirate, the
sea pup is still under pressure to fit in, this time by abandoning her
love for fancy things. After all, says her father the captain, a good
pirate must be rotten, sneaky, and brainy. But is there really any
reason a pirate can't be sneaky, brainy, and fancy? When the rest of the
crew is captured by Captain Fishmonger's mangy pirate cats, Augusta gets
the chance to show just what a well-dressed, sweet-smelling, clever pup
can do.
With swashbuckling energy and satisfying pirate dialogue, Kari-Lynn
Winters has written a sequel worthy of Bad Pirate's popular and
critical success. Dean Griffiths brings personality to every crewmember,
telling stories within stories through his richly detailed
illustrations. A treasure for any landlubber who knows you can't judge a
mind by its cover.
