This book provides a simple overview, presenting facts and myths about past and modern-day pirates (including two females). Nobleman explores topics in splashy double-page chapters. The busy page design includes diagonally set text, captioned photos, vocabulary words at the bottom of the page, and "Pirate fact!" boxes, all of which may be distracting to struggling readers. Reading list, websites. Glos., ind.
