The Salt Pirates Of Skegness

The Salt Pirates Of Skegness

by Chris D ' Lacey (Author)

Synopsis

He started to quiver. He started to quake. But it was all too late. Before he could think of running away a wispy stream of whitish dust came whistling out of the bottle bank...Jason Webberly was simply doing as his mum told him. How was he to know what was in That bottle? He certainly didn't expect to be faced with some gibbering old pirate who could turn into a dog! And a rude and unruly one at that. And without Jason's help he'd be deader than a double-eyed dogfish. Can these scruffy scamps make it to Skegness? What will happen when Scuttle and his riotous crew return to The Slippery Skeggle? And how will they get past crabby Aunt Hester? A riotous romp of a read from Carnegie-shortlisted author, Chris d'Lacey.
