For wannabe pirates whether boys or girls - By: CC, 24 Jul 2008 
Favourite quote of the book: 'Give me my treasure back or I'll tell my mum'
This book is a firm favourite with my 5yo son - he loves the rhythm & the pace & most of all he loves the little girl pirates for NOT saying 'certainly not, you're only a boy'. I have bought lots of copies for little girls as an antidote to stories of soppy princesses, & had to make a complete Captain Patch costume for my son for World Book Day!
bedtime story night after night - By: Bulbeck Family, 19 Jul 2008 We bought this along with 'pirate things to make & do' & again this was a great purchase. My 6 year old son chose this for his bedtime story night after night after night. He enjoyed reciting the first page or two himself. He loved the repetition & also the typography. This book has spurred my son on into wanting to read & the different typography has been helpfulin recognising the word phrases.
absolutely captivating - By: mum's the word, 03 Jan 2008 This is one of my & my 4 year old son's favourite books. It tells the fantastic story of Tom & a team of girl pirates who steal the front of Tom's house & use it to disguise their ship so they can steal treasure from Captain Patch & his grown up pirates.
What sets this book apart is the wonderful illustrations & the text which not only has a gentle rhyme & repetition but flows across the page using different fonts & layouts to help tell the story. for instance when the pirates run away, so do the letters.....
This book will be treasured by any boy or girl & it is particularly refreshing to find a story about girls who are not pink princessese. Buy this book - you will not be disappointed!
the night pirates - By: L. Hillman, 30 Dec 2007 
I love the illustrationsin this book & the story seems to start off well but i thought that the middle of the story was lacking a little.
Where was the big adventure? They said what it was but i feel they could have taken us into the adventurein just a little bit more detail.
Im afraid to say i was a bit disapointedin the book by itself although the book along with the cd is much better.
Night Pirates - By: Ms. Jane E. Reeves, 27 Oct 2007 An excellent book which has been read & read. The way the book is written is easy to read & understand. The pictures are also excellent. I would recommend this to boys & girls who have an interestin pirates. Happy reading.
