An Actual Report of a Book – The Pirate’s Son

The Pirate’s Son by: Geraldine McCaughrean
Fiction: historic 294 pages, 6th grade reading level, copyright 1996

This is a fun book on pirates for children. It has both strong male and female characters making it a good read for all pre-teens into pirates. It also goes into the reality of how bad real pirates were, so we would not recommend it for younger children; however, it is nice to find a youth fiction book on pirates that does not completely romanticize the pirate’s life.
