Description/Notes
Good, rugged father and son bonding . . . on the high seas! It's a yar vessel that can carry this crew of burly pirates, the captain and his scrappy little son. From the crow's nest to the hold, from the high seas to the island of buried treasure, this boy hangs out with the most rough-and-tumble of rogues, and at the end of each day, he gets tucked in by the fiercest pirate of them all: his dad. A pirate's son shares the things he loves about his father, including climbing the mast together to yell 'Land ho' and sharing the booty when they find buried treasure. This lyrical picture book follows a scrappy young boy as he hangs out with one of the most rough-and-rumble rogues of the high seas: his dad. Full color.
