With summer over, everyone in the family is busy, and Poppy the Pirate Dog is lonely. But when her family brings home a kitten, Poppy isn't happy. George couldn't possibly make a good shipmate--or will he? The second very-early chapter book offers a more cohesive plot than its predecessor. Loose-lined ink and watercolor illustrations afford the domestic swashbucklers much personality.
