We all know that pirates are very good at saying "RRRRR" but the captain of this pirate crew is not satisfied with just one letter. He roars his crew off in search of D's, E's, F's and G's. Happily the animal pirates go off in search of letter treasure. And by gum and by golly, they do find letters. There's a C on a cannonball there in the sand and an E leaping off a pierced ear. On balmy tropical islands all sorts of letters emerge in shells, in beards, and even a letter O that rolls in right out of the ocean. It's a romping adventure in the summery seas and ends with a good joke on all those hardworking pirate searchers. Ages 3-6 32 pages
