Customer Reviews

Arrr! this book made me a pirate me mateys!

Yarr, and you can become a pirate too! I have been a degenerate menace to civilized society ever since. This is the coolest book, every rambunctiously imaginative person should check it out. And some of those imaginative people should write further books on becoming an intergalactic hero, knight, time traveller, robot, cowperson, musketeer, flapper, gangster, bohemian, etcetera, with similar hands on projects that result in cool props...

This is a great book to start learning about pirates.

I like this book because it teaches you how to make pirate stuff and it tells you what pirates were really like. It has lots of good pictures of their weapons, maps, flags and clothes. It also describes the different types of pirates. Errol Smith, 8, Montague,NJ
