Pirates Don't Change Diapers

Pirates Don't Change diapers is a fantastic book, which is why I purchased a copy in "very good condition". I don't consider a personalized copy "very good condition". I don't know anyone named Marlin to give it to. There was no indication in the description that there was writing in the book. This wasn't the 1st time it's happened, either. Please list books with names written in them as "good".

My three year old nephew is a self declared pirate, so "How I Became a Pirate" was a must have. But I think I like this book even more. It's at its best read aloud with special emphasis (and perhaps special voice) for the pirate crew lines -- NO SITTIN' ON BABIES!! -- and guaranteed to make both children and adults giggle at the silly situations and pictures. I doubt I'll ever get tired of reading it.

We love David Shannon books!! Not only are the illustrations great, but the storyline is halarious! A must have for your child's library and its good entertainment for parents too.

This book is fantastic! It is full of imagination. Both my husband, and I love reading this book to our little one.

We don't have "How I became a pirate" yet. For some reason I thought this was it. Anyway, the book is fun and my 6 year old likes it for a bed time story. Everyday for a week so far. I found the story is not really dependent on the first book. Basically, the pirates pay a visit to retrieve their buried treasure from Jeremy Jacob's yard after their ship runs aground. They need money to fix it. But before they can dig it up; they have to help babysit Jeremy Jacob's little sister. But as Captain Braid Beard says "Babysit? Pirates don't sit on babies!" The art work really makes the story fun and my little girl usually takes the book so she can look at the pictures. Now we just have to pick up the first book!

We already have a pretty good synopsis of the book here, so I certainly will not go into depth in that area. Simply put, Jeremy Jacob is visited by his old pirate friends while he is watching his baby sister while mom is away shopping for milk. Pirates indeed are not made for watching small, bratty baby sisters as we find as the story progresses. This tale is filled with good pirate talk (Aargh) and the art work by David Shannon is great. I love his facial expressions he is able to create in his characters. The story moves fast and the text matches the illustrations perfectly. This is one that the kids usually want read several times as each reading reveals something funny that was missed with the previous reading. I enjoyed this one, and more importantly, the classes I read it to, also enjoy it. When the kids like a book, that is probably the best indorsement it, the book can get. Recommend this one highly.
