About this title

Review:

'The rhyming story is sung to a catchy tune, with lively instrumental accompaniment. The jollity and verve with which this is done gives a new meaning to the adjective 'page turner', and I was sorry when it ended. Happily the song and chorus are repeated, giving the reader a chance to sing and read along, and to relive each event. What a great way to get children's interest!' --The School Librarian

'From the moment this book is plucked from the shelf and the CD starts playing you ll be 'Ah Harrrr'-ing me hearties all the way. It is a fun, energy packed, colourful, romp across the seven seas. The weaving of the story with the catchy, toe-tapping song (enthusiastically sung by Mark Collins) is clever and the pictures are just wonderful.' --LittleStuff.co.uk

Synopsis:

'When I was young I had some fun. The day I went to sea. I jumped on board a pirate ship, and the captain said to me: Oh we go this way, that way, Port side, starboard over the deep blue sea!'.
