Pirate Girl

(2) K-3 Translated by Chantal Wright. Illustrated by Kerstin Meyer. Captain Firebeard, "the terror of the high seas," captures young Molly, sure her parents will pay a "handsome ransom." When Molly's formidable mother--a truly terrifying pirate--shows up with her own crew of fearless ladies, she saves her daughter and exacts a fitting revenge. Meyer's comically detailed illustrations raise the book above its girl-power message. A rowdy, satisfying seafaring adventure.
