How do pirates cope with babies?<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Shiver me timbers,\" said the captain. \"It's a baby!\"\u00a0 \u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>\n

When the crew of pirate ship Ramshackle find a tiny baby adrift on the high seas, they are a bit flummoxed. Even more so, when they discover it's a baby girl.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This is a book full of adventure, surprises, fun and imagination. Taken into a world of pirates on the high seas, it will immerse you into amazing characters, exciting adventures and just how the dare devil pirates cope with a baby girl. As she wins them over, they find ways to give her milk, but in a different way; condensed milk with water is not maybe the best, but she seems to like it!<\/p>\n

The pirates won't give up their baby, not even to the women pirates and when a huge sea monster appears it is baby Isla who saves the whole company of pirates.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Mary Hoffman<\/a>, the author is well-known for her many children's books including Amazing Grace, which has sold over a million copies. The narrative is full of her wonderful style fitting the scenes with pirate adventures.<\/p>\n

Ros Asquith<\/a> a world-famous illustrator and cartoonist, has created delightful characters in the big blue seas. Her books are translated into over 20 languages and she was a Guardian cartoonist for 25 years.<\/p>\n
