Synopsis

Trixy, Tammy and Trig are three little girl pirates who live aboard the Lucky Lobster with their pets Mullet the dog, Kipper the cat and a seagull called Gulliver. Their friends include some boy pirates and a friendly sea-monster; and they can always rely on help from Mr Spoons at the Harbour Stores. The three little pirates have loads of adventures on the salty seas - but they're about to face their most dangerous mission of all! All the mermates are missing - even Princess Mo, and the king and queen are desperate for help. But dare the little pirates tangle with the wicked Vanilla Cringe and the scary octopus, Hong Kong? In the bestselling tradition of THE THREE LITTLE WITCHES STORYBOOK here's a rollicking tale to enchant young readers: with nine short chapters to read aloud or enjoy alone, lots of bright, funny pictures, maps to follow, clues to find and puzzles to solve.
