 Write a review

Suitable for children aged 3 to 5 years old, this title takes them on a ship of mischievous brigands, who have visions of treasure chests, not sugarplums, dancing in their heads, and you wouldn't expect a visit from nice St Nick. Instead, here comes Sir Peggedy, with his peg leg and hook arm, cracking his whip and driving eight giant seahorses.
