Product Description

Pirate Pete and his parrot love gold. When they hear the Queen has a treasure map, they must have it. For where there is treasure, there is gold. And as Pete says (over and over again): "Where there's gold, I'm a-goin'!" Pete and his parrot steal the map and hit the high seas. As they journey to Mermaid Island, where the treasure lies, they come upon other islands that tempt Pete in his search for gold. On Candy Island, they are sure to find gold cavity fillings; on Sleepy Island, magic gold dust from the Sandman; on Clover Island, a pot of leprechaun gold! But their search is futile: the children on Candy Island brush their teeth! Sleepy Island residents read books to help them sleep! And the leprechaun's pot holds Irish stew! And these aren't their only problems. Whose ship is that on the horizon, giving chase? This funny and whimsical book will have both children and adults giggling as Pete and crew make their way toward Mermaid Island. This book is pure gold!

Excellent adventure!5
Avast! Ye will love this tale of greedy Pirate Pete. My son can't get enough of this book and neither can I. Colorful illustrations with magical nuances light up the pages, and the text is easy to read, with a memorable, fun refrain..."where there's gold I'm a goin'." A welcome addition to our library.

My 2 year old son has just become mad on pirates and loves me to read Pirate Pete to him. There's plenty of opportunity to get into character and the illustrations are great.
