### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    A fantastic pirate tale!
  

*by S***. on Reviewed in the United States on December 30, 2018*

This book was a hit with us and our 7 year old autistic son!  He loves it!!! He is a collector of pirate stories.  He loves a good pirate story that includes lots of laughs along with scary adventure. The pirate dialog is so authentic and very fun to read!!  The story is awesome,  it has a good lesson,  the colors and drawing are fantastic. The paper and binding a good quality.  Very cute characters.  If your child is easily scared the story may be too much, (a great big kraken involved ) but for our pirate fantasy fan, it was just the excitement level  he appreciates. He smiles his way through the story every night.  It is one of the best pirate books in his collection.  The one drawback is that some of the print placed on dark background is a little hard to see in poor light, so just turn those lights up.

    Engaging for all ages - even the reader!
  

*by M***S on Reviewed in the United States on March 4, 2013*

I've lost track of how many times I've read "The Pirate Cruncher" for my twin 4.25-year-old sons in the few days since I purchased it. I love it because it's interesting to read aloud: there's a mix of reading text and singing verse, plus some of the pirate crew's thoughts are portrayed in illustrations so your pre-literate children can help "read" the book aloud too. My kids LOVE LOVE LOVE the story, and the illustrated clues on each page about the story's mystery. I can't recommend this book highly enough for 4+-year-olds. I too am surprised, like another reviewer, that it did not get a Caldecott award. We own several Caldecott award-winning books and while I see the difference in the sophistication of illustration between "Pirate Cruncher" and, say, "A Sick Day for Amos McGee", these illustrations engage my pre-literate kids on many levels and get them to help me tell the story aloud. Several months ago, I was becoming inclined to try longer, chapter books with my boys but then I read that experts say that parents are abandoning picture books too early for their pre-schoolers. This book is an outstanding example of how pictures can promote a real dialog between the adult reader and his/her audience. Such fun!

    Fantastic Illustrations - hard to read the words
  

*by N***E on Reviewed in the United States on April 1, 2017*

We had to warm up to this book.  The illustrations are fantastic (that's a big deal in this house).The biggest draw backs to this book is the choice of fount and black type on a dark background.  The publisher needed to help the author of the book understand the difficulty in reading "fancy" font; and then they made it more difficult to read by putting black font on a dark blue background.With that said after multiple read through I got good enough at reading/remembering the words that I am requested to read this book nearly every night.Also, there's a pretty cool fold down page toward the end of the book that my son loves (no spoiler alert).
