Patrick was the youngest pirate on the ‘Salty Sardine’. He was always in trouble because he loved to read and kept forgetting to do his jobs. One day, the ship reached an island and Patrick suddenly became a hero.

A beautifully illustrated picture book about pirates, reading, relationships and treasure. The book aims to raise awareness of the importance of reading in children ages 4-9 years. A fun to read out loud book with a glossary of high interest pirate words, challenging societal perceptions of ‘treasure’.
