Brilliant read at any time of year but especially Christmas!! My little boy absolutely loved this adventure of Santa as a pirate and his gang of skallywags. Loved so much he's now reading it to his little sister each night! Highly recommend, and author writes with bucket loads of character and wit you will be laughing outloud along with your child. Enjoy!

The next Roald Dahl and David Walliams!

Fabulous book, everything children want from a book and more! M. C. D. Etheridge is the next Roald Dahl and David Walliams, his book is as entertaining for adults as it is for children. That wonderful moment when you realise you are going to enjoy the story as much as your kids are. I cannot recommend it highly enough, thoroughly enjoyed it from beginning to end - next one soon please!

A great Christmas read for children

What a magical book. I bought this to give to my grandson and nephews, but became engrossed in the story myself and read it from cover to cover. It is adventurous and amusing, with just a hint of romance. I laughed out loud at some of the antics. It introduces real events in history and is morally uplifting. Boys and girls will equally enjoy this. Finally may I recommend that the author tries stir-fried brussel sprouts with bacon. This may change his mind!!

Brilliant adventure story for children (and parents!)

I'm currently reading Whitebeard with my daughter and am loving it as much as she is. We are having a chapter each morning and can't wait to find out what Whitebeard and his crew are up to every day. The characters are fantastic, the plot is a real page-turner and the style is brilliantly funny and gripping. Would highly recommend it for independent readers or parents reading with their children.

I loved this book! It was such an enjoyable read. One of those gems that are perfect for both children and adults. I had actually purchased it for my younger relatives, but couldn't resist - and read it myself! Adults will appreciate the hilarity and children will be engrossed with the story and enchanted by it too. Highly recommend! A great read for both boys and girls.

Have just finished Whitebeard and it certainly left me wanting more. Can't wait for Book 2! The 9 year old in me relished the pirate characters and their schoolboy antics.

Great new book and the start of what I think will be an awesome series for children and the young at heart. I got this for my Nephew, though had a cheeky read of the first couple of chapters and ended up reading the whole thing! A good read!
