2015 MOM’S CHOICE AWARD: HONORING EXCELLENCE SEAL OF
APPROVAL
Join Christopher and Lucy, Leo the Attack-Mouse-for-Hire,
Sugar the Monkey, and a throng of talking bats—as they battle pirates on the
high seas. When 13-year-old Christopher runs away from an orphanage, he is
kidnapped by undercover pirates who force him to pretend he is a mute relative,
as the villains sign on to a merchant ship they are plotting to plunder.
Christopher discovers he can talk with a highly skilled mouse who offers to
teach him Five Life Lessons. The Captain’s 12-year-old daughter Lucy discovers
the truth about Christopher and befriends him. But can they stop the pirates?
Get ready for all the fun, hidden treasure, swordfights, terrifying storms and
island paradise adventures that make pirate sagas so exciting. What sets Arrgh!
apart from standard swashbucklers is its young hero’s longing for family, and
how he comes to find a family he will treasure forever.
A delightful symphony for children, tuned with
evocative prose that conjures images of the seafaring life. Satisfying and
well-told.—Kirkus Reviews
Arrgh! is a true treasure.—Midwest Book Review
An awesome book. It will make kids long for the
adventurous life of piratedom.
I also enjoyed the illustrations, maps, and
glossary of seafaring terms
.—Readers’ Favorite
The fighting is light, making it a really good MG
book. An entertaining story that can be enjoyed by older teens and adults alike.—Books
and Ashes Blog
Heroes to love, villains to hate, and lovable
guides...Inspiring, fun
.—Sunshine, Bubbles & Books
Delightful, adventurous and sometimes heart pumping. I
could not put it down!
