Pirates Love Underpants

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Ben Cort. In Freedman and Cort's newest Underpants book, pirates in search of treasure called Pants of Gold vanquish their rivals with swords to their elastic waistbands. The jaunty and usually well-metered rhyming text is packed with giggle-inducing moments of reverence toward underwear. The wide-faced pirates in the illustrations, shown at the end to be a child's toys, are never too scary.
