Summary: Tina EKrighe, MD
Comment: It is a beautiful book; I got it at a very reasonable price compared to other places. The book is very well made.

Customer Rating:

Summary: Pirate books - not much differentiation.
Comment: The 'Pirate' books are great! I recommend just buying one of the interactive options available. Any more would be redundant.

Fun little treasure to explore and look at. Be sure to keep the moving parts in their place!

Customer Rating:

Summary: This be a good book you scurvy Pirate!
Comment: This is a must-have for all you scurvy pirate dogs out there. It's chocked full of cool things that are part of the book, but not just printed on the pages. Like hidden treasure maps, a bag of gold dust, letters from pirates that are in compartments which are secured by tied yarn strings attached within its pages and a real working compass built into the cover. Not to mention lots of cool pirate pictures and stories written in the book itself. Our 3 year old loves it, she is into pirates, but must be supervised when "reading" it. Would be very cool for older kids who can read and love Pirateology.

Summary: Two boys' review: This book doubles as a treasure chest
Comment: Secret pouches, treasure gems, letters, pirate flags...lots of fun!

We bought this for our young children (5-year old and 4-year old) as they were excited by the Pirates of the Caribbean movie trilogy.

We bought this book along with Pirates by John Matthews last year. We take the books off the shelf every couple months and read through them for bedtime. The books will stay in our collection for years to come.

This book helps introduce a large amount of new vocabulary but, more importantly, covers so much ground that it acts as a fantastic springboard to further study history or science.

Ahoy, OLOGISTS all !

A new discovery from the publishers of DRAGONOLOGY, EGYPTOLOGY, WIZARDOLOGY . . . PIRATEOLOGY!

Found in a sunken sea chest off the coast of Newfoundland, a buried journal revealing secret and complete knowledge of the piratical life!

This facsimile of the hidden-in-sea-chest journal from 1723, recording the secrets of famed pirate hunter Captain William Lubber, tells of Lubber’s around-the-world voyage on the trail of the "verminous female pirate" Arabella Drummond - always one tantalizing step out of Lubber’s reach.

Special features of PIRATEOLOGY include: * Foil-embellished and jewel-encrusted cover with a special surprise feature! * Envelop containing Lubber’s letter of marquee * Piece of an aged treasure map (find the missing piece!) * Foldout map showing Lubber’s route and the locations of pirates around the globe * Instructions and string for practicing sailor’s knots * Packet of gold dust * Ransom note * and much, much, more ….

PIRATEOLOGY, The Pirate Hunter’s Companion, makes landfall JULY 2006 !
