Dinosaurs and Pirates, what more could you ask for. Gary the Stegosaurus wants to be a pirate. Unfortunately he has some issues due to his body and his size. Even though he is trying to do a good job, he ends up messing things up. The illustrations were great. They were bright, colourful and humorous as well as having some hidden jokes and answers to questions in them. Watch for the nod to the Titanic Movie. At the end of the book is an questions section where you can use the page number given to find the answers hidden in the illustrations. A cute story that young children will enjoy and parents will enjoy reading to them, especially if you can do a good pirate voice. A great addition to public, school, classroom and family libraries. The publisher generously provided me with a copy of this book via Netgalley.
