Pirates Don't Change Diapers - Book

Swashbuckling pirates baby-sitting' How did this happen' This hilarious companion to How I Became a Pirate reveals that minding the nursery can be even more terrifying than walking the plank-especially if you're a pirate. Memorable illustrations.

Melinda Long and illustrator David Shannon return to the pirate crew of their earlier picture book How I Became a Pirate. This time the swaggering pirates find themselves minding a baby, and they discover that the nursery can be scarier than any sea battle.

David Shannon's bold, comic paintings carry much of the fun, and the pirate talk makes it a lively read-aloud for young children who already know the first book. Published by Harcourt, now part of Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, as a hardcover picture book.
