"Good pacing and appealing artwork. . . . Engaging fare for young
readers." --Booklist
Poppy the dalmatian can't wait to go on a seaside vacation with her
family; she thinks it will be fun to be a pirate dog. But she's afraid
of boats! After trying--and failing--to be brave on a fishing boat, a
seal-spotting cruise, a pedal boat, and a speedboat, Poppy has almost
given up. Will she manage to find her pirate ship before the family
heads back home? From New York Times best-selling author Liz Kessler
comes a full-color early reader for adventurous young scalawags and
their pirate pooches.
