Editorial Review
Ahoy, mateys! Pirate Pete and his trusty parrot are back for a rollicking good time on the high seas.

Yo-ho-ho! I wish I’d a ship,To sail to islands yonder,
I’d do anything for this wish,
Who could grant it, I wonder?

What’s a pirate without his trusty ship? A sea-fairy promises Pete a ship of his own if he can return the Sea-Fairy Sapphire to the sea. The only problem is that the sapphire is on Thunder Island—and it isn’t alone!

Pete must face danger, intrigue, and a particularly unfriendly nemesis as he tricks and sings his way to safety. With a yo-ho-ho and avast ye and a few scurvy dogs, readers will love to see their favorite pirate back in action and still in rare form.

Customer Reviews

Not quite as cute as the first one, but still enjoyable

2008-02-25
The title makes it pretty self-explanatory. The first one was very cute, with all the different islands. this one takes off with Pete and his pirate sitting in their rowboat after losing their ship. They make a deal with a mermaid to retrieve a jewel for her from Thunder Island, where a Giant is guarding it. Pete is still clever, but humorously flawed, often not paying attention to what the more alert parrot is trying to tell him. The illustrations are nicely done in lovely colors and there's enough mix of pirate for the boys and girly bits for the girls, so both genders of children will enjoy it.

Great

My son loves all books about pirate Pete. He is in his pirate stage now, therefore we have a lot of pirate books. But about Pete are the favorite.

Sweet Pirate Book

2008-02-05
When my three year old son took an interest in Pirates, I was concerned about the violence in the topic. The Pirate Pete series are sweet books that lack the violence found in other pirate books. My son loves the series and so do I. Cute, cute, cute...

An all-around fun story for young readers

Pirate Pete's Giant Adventure by Kim Kennedy and featuring the illustrations of Doug Kennedy is a remarkable tale of a pirate named Pete and his ultimate journey to take hold of the Sea-Fairy Saffire in exchange for his very own ship. Encountering a multitude of treacherous enemies, including a quite frightful giant, Pirate Pete's Giant Adventure carries young readers through an engaging picturebook story of wit and intrigue as Pete's expert cunning and creative approach to piracy brings to his prize despite a rather gullible giant. An all-around fun story for young readers, Pirate Pete's Giant Adventure is very highly recommended for school and community library picturebook collections.
