Book Reviews of How I Became a Pirate
Book Review: Wonderful story and beautiful and engaging illustrations.
Summary: 5 Stars
Purchased this book for my 3 1/2 year old grandson as an Easter gift. I've been told that he wants to be a pirate someday!... Gave it to him early as I thought it would be just what he needed after being at home sick for nearly a week!... He loved it, from the first page, the illustrations.. very imaginable and colorful (I truly think half the time I purchase books because the illustrations are gorgeous, "informative" etc. ). I watched his eyes as his mom began to read the story, which from page one... was believable to his little ears!... a great book!Book Review: must have!

This book is a must have in your collection of childerens books! Of course the illustrations by David Shannon are amazing. Illustrations that are colorful and creative but beautiful for adults to enjoy also. The story, even though about pirates is wonderful for any gender or age range. The story is funny but also gives the reality of what would happen if you lived with pirates, and how much you would miss the little things your parents do for you. One of my two daughters, 4&5, and my favorite books. I give this book out as a gift as often as possible!Book Review: Fantastic book with beautiful illustrations! Aye!

This is such a cute book! My daughter is almost 2 and really likes it, but not as much as me and my husband! The pictures are so cute and the beach reminds me of our summer home on Cape Cod where I played for hours. The pirates come up on the beach and no one notices! But, the little boy decides to go back home because the pirates don't tuck him in or read him stories like at home. It is adorable! I can see little boys and little girls just loving this book! :) The illustrations are so unique and fun, as is the text.Book Review: A piece of Art in more ways then one....

I bought this for my 4 yr old daughter who has a kinda "thing" for pirates. She and I were so pleased. The illustrations are captivating - especially the two page spread where he says "Thats how I became a Pirate", his arms flung out as he shouts to the world at the front of the boat. Whimsy, fantasy, the culmination of any child's dream.....I saw represented on this page.....As an adult I just found the illustrations excellent and downright funny at times...
My daughter loved it and so do I!
