Don't Disturb the Pirate! is a joyful adventure of words, rhythm, and imagination! I loved the movement of the words on the page. It added energy to the story, making it feel as though the book itself was alive.

The smooth, easy rhymes create a playful reading experience that flows effortlessly, making it a great choice for read-aloud fun. Fairies AND Mermaids bring an extra layer of whimsy, keeping young readers eager to see what happens next.

Beyond its charm,, it helps reinforce key skills for Kindergarten-aged children. Each turn of the page is filled with adorable surprises. A truly magical and engaging read!

My four year old loved this, and was so excited to read it before bed.

The illustrations are adorable - lots of colour and whimsy, and the rhyming was fun! My child was excited to find the dog and had me zoom in on some of the pictures to see him better.

This is one I will probably buy a physical copy of to have in our personal library.

Thank you Netgalley for the electronic ARC of this one.

Tiptoe along with the main character as he searches for his dog and tries not to bother the pirates. I love that readers get to guess what the clues actually are as the book unfolds. The text flows smoothly so young readers can follow the rhythm. I love the final discovery that there is a pirate party and the dog had joined in. Brightly colored illustrations capture the fun and adventure.

My kids love the “don’t disturb the …” books and this version was no different. It fit their pirate loving souls perfectly. The story was easy to follow and kept their interest. I enjoyed it as well especially the misdirections. Also, the illustrations are colorful and eye catching. My kids love looking at all the different details.

Cute storyline and characters, the rhyming scheme was easy to follow at first but then got awkward. My son enjoyed the illustrations!

Cute picture book with fun illustrations. My 4 year old daughter really enjoyed it. We liked the repeitition and enjoyed saying together, "don't disturb the pirate," on every page.

This was a cute book. My son enjoyed it. Especially as I made pirate sounds. It had cute illustrations. The rhyming was fun and kept my son engaged.

Our kids (3 and 5) absolutely loved this. It was engaging and the rhyming was so fun. The artwork held their interest well. Thus would be one we’d read over and over. We will likely purchase for our home library. We’d definitely read others in this collection if it is or becomes a series. Thanks NetGalley for the review copy.

Thank you to Netgalley and Sourcebooks Kids for an ARC in exchange for mine and my son's review.

Read this book with my 4-year old who loved <u>Don't Disturb the Dragon</u>. He really liked this one as well, though not as much as the dragon book. This is a fun book about a boy encountering a plethora of animals and magical creatures on his quest to find his dog, and his attempt to not disturb the pirates on the island in the process. I realized that as someone with an American accent, a few of the rhymes don't line up exactly based on how I pronounce words. An English accent will likely flow much better when reading. Other than that, the storyline was fun, the illustrations are great and whimsical, and the writing is simple yet effective! My son has asked several times to read this book again, and I enjoy reading it, which are the two main components for success in our house!

My son and I both really enjoyed this cute pirate story! The book is fun and engaging and the illustrations are bright and colorful! My son loves this series of books and we look forward to reading more. The thought the tie in to the next book was cute.

I love this series of books! I really enjoyed Don't Disturb the Dragon and I plan to use it in my programming now that it's published, and I can't wait to add this one to my list as well! These books are so silly and engaging. I do wish, as an American, that all of the rhymes worked with an American accent, but I understand that that's a personal issue. I could see my kiddos wondering why the whole book rhymes except for a few times with things like "shore and paw" and "dawn and unicorn." Just a personal thing! I hope these books become as popular as the "How to Catch a..." Series by Adam Wallace and Alice Walstead. There are so many different things that could be done and places that could be explored.

He soon and I both enjoyed this book. It's bright and colorful and I like the clues in the pages section though they aren't mentioned. It kept my son engaged looking in each page.

Don't Disturb the Pirate! is a picture book about a boy searching for his lost dog. He looks everywhere while making sure he doesn't bother the pirate! The illustrations are colorful and help the story come to life. It's a relatively simple read with rhyming and pirate related vocabulary. This would be a quick read before bedtime.

Thanks to Sourcebooks Kids - Sourcebooks Jabberwocky and NetGalley for an eARC of this book for an honest review.
