No Bath, No Cake!: Polly's Pirate Party

40 pp. | North-South | April, 2013 | Trade ISBN 978-0-7358-4112-3 $17.95
(3) K-3 Translated by David Henry Wilson. After three adult pirates get invited to a girl's birthday party, their parrot schools them in party etiquette (bathe, dress up, etc.). When they arrive at the party squeaky-clean, the girl is enraged by their non-pirate-like appearance. This cheeky book's humor often comes from wordless vignettes--e.g., the parrot's comeuppance is depicted by a cloud emanating fists, stars, and debris.
