Pirates on the Farm by Denette Fretz and Illustrated by Gene Barretta

The Pirates are moving in next door!!  Pirates on the Farm is about a group of unruly pirates that move in next door to a quiet family that lives on a farm.  The Pirates are definitely different and show their odd behavior in all kinds of ways.  Deep down inside they are just like everyone else, but will the townspeople be able to see that or not?

This is a fun book about differences.  Pirates are always fun and these pirates act much like you'd expect them too.  It's not always easy to be friendly and nice to those who seem so different.  This story would be a great springboard for talking with your kids about how to treat those who may do things differently.  The pictures are great and have lots of color!  Your kids will love looking at all the fun things in the pictures.  See what this book is all about and watch the book trailer below!


This book is the first in The Next Door Series and is for kids ages 4-8 years old.  I'm looking forward to see what the next book will be!  You can check out the author's site here.
