A Year on a Pirate Ship

by Elizabeth Havercroft

Overview

Ahoy, mates! Would you like to know what life is like on a pirate ship?

Then come live on board for the next twelve months. Check out these eight action-packed scenes for a bird's-eye view of the life and work of pirates on the open seas. See how the pirates attack a ship, deal with a whale, and handle a storm. Keep your eye on the calendar too. By spending a whole year with the pirate crew, you can watch events unfold as the seasons change.

The Time Goes By series let's you spend a whole day (or a whole year) in the same place and watch events unfold. Eight large-scale illustrations combine with simple text to tell the story. A clock or calendar shows time passing, while a "search and find" feature encourages readers to study the artwork up close.
