Macmillan Captain Pike Looks After The Baby

Captain Pike discovers that looking after a baby isn't quite as easy as he thought in this crazy piratical mix of cutlasses and lullabies, treasure maps and nappies. But when Captain Whitebeard and his crew attack the ship, it turns out some pirates have a soft spot for babies ...and at last Captain Pike learns how to cope with his offspring. With a story to really make children giggle and bright, colourful illustrations bursting with energy and comic detail from an exciting new artist, these pirates are hard to resist!
