This was a very interesting and nontraditional poetry book. It showed and told the lives of real pirates. It shared how rough a pirates life really is; from fighting to being hung. It seemed as if each poem was written in different forms. That really kept it interesting as you were wondering what type of poem would be next.
I am always looking for great poetry books to read and share with my students. I don’t think this is one I would read aloud to them, but I would definitely have it out during our poetry unit. The pictures were wonderful as they helped the reader understand the poem.
