Danger Dan Spooks the Peculiar Peranakan Pirate - Lesley-Anne Tan
Danger Dan has been captured by the evil Peg Leg Pirate and his crew! He is bound and locked up in the brig. His prison is cold, wet and dark except for a small barred window. Danger Dan needs to escape before the pirates make him walk the plank! Taking a deep breath, he musters all his strength and pulls.
IllustrationIllustrationThe ropes binding his hands and feet fly apart. The pirates are fools. No rope or chain is any match for Danger Dan’s super strength. Now to escape! He scans the cell for a weak spot. The cage bars are made of solid steel and are unbreakable. But the bars on the window are thin and rusted from the sea water.
Danger Dan leaps up and grabs hold of one of the wooden beams on the ceiling. Like a trapeze artist, he skilfully swings forward, does a double somersault and gives a mighty kick.
IllustrationThe metal bars break and tumble out the open window, disappearing into the deep blue sea.
IllustrationDanger Dan dives into the ocean. He rises to the surface for air and whistles an unusual, high-pitched tune. A friendly dolphin answers the call and playfully circles him. He climbs onto the dolphin’s back and it takes off! Standing on the dolphin, Danger Dan surfs past the pirate ship and towards the shore. The island is in sight! He can already see the familiar coconut trees and white sandy beach. Just a little closer…
Danny, lend me your e-dictionary!
Danny’s eldest sister, Amy, suddenly barged into his room unannounced, jolting Danny out of his daydream. As she swung open the door, it slammed into Danny’s skateboard and threw him off.
Amy wasn’t really asking for permission. She usually just took whatever she wanted. Amy was 18 years old and had a Big Mouth. She often talked only because she liked the sound of her own voice. She needed the e-dictionary to find new words because she had grown tired of using the same ones.
Amy spotted Danny’s e-dictionary on his desk and grabbed it. I didn’t say you could have it!
protested Danny.
Just as he lunged at Amy’s legs to stop her, his second sister, Betty, marched into his room. I’m borrowing your calculator, Danny!
she demanded. Betty was 16 years old and had a Big Brain. She was working out how fast a submarine functioning at three-eighths of its capacity would be travelling if it left the base at 0415 hours and almost collided with a whale moving in the opposite direction in search of its calf 73 kilometres away. Betty didn’t need a calculator for that, though. She needed it for the bonus question: what was the length of the submarine’s periscope?
Betty boldly rummaged through Danny’s school bag. Stop taking my stuff!
cried Danny. He let go of Amy and threw himself at Betty, who dodged.
Just then, Danny’s third sister, Candy, clumped into his room. Candy was 12 years old. She didn’t have a Big Mouth or a Big Brain. She was just…BIG. Her idea of a balanced meal was three burgers, three bowls of chips and three milkshakes. Candy spotted an unopened bag of peanut butter crisps on Danny’s bed and snatched it.
HEY!
Danny was furious. Peanut butter crisps were his absolute favourite and he had been saving the pack. GIVE THAT BACK!
He grabbed Candy’s arm but she brushed him aside like he was a fly.
The three sisters hurried out of the room with their finds, leaving Danny screaming in frustration. Oh! Why did he have to be a small and scrawny 11-year-old? It wasn’t fair!
Danny had had enough. He slammed the door, placed two chairs against it and started stacking random items onto them. Thick textbooks. Brimming school files. Schoolbag. Beanbag. Lava lamp. Pillows. Wastepaper basket. Badminton racket. Skateboard. A whole army of toy soldiers for good measure.
Danny pushed his immensely heavy toy chest against the chairs to secure the barricade. Finally, he climbed up the pile and gently positioned his basketball at the top. If any of his pesky sisters did break through, they would get a nasty thump on the head! Danny stood back to admire his massive masterpiece.
Danger Dan’s barricade is impenetrable! Nothing can get past this sturdy barrier.
