K-3I Can Read Book series.
Illustrated by
Anne Kennedy.
A torn map shows Riff Raff and his crew that the treasure they seek is on a street that starts with "PLU" (combining an easy-to-read adventure with spelling). Spoiler: "It's PLUM, by gum!" The treasure is a music box, which is just fine with these rhyme-prone pirates. The merry drawings feature seafaring mice aboard a bottle-turned-ship.
