Join Tom on his adventure across the ocean as he searches for the captains favourite treasure. Can he find it before Captain Crank leaves him behind on Pirate Island? Meet Tom. Tom is a cabin boy on the pirate ship The Puffin and loves it very much. When Captain Cutlass Crank goes ashore on Pirate Island, he tells Tom to look after his favourite treasure, but when he returns, the treasure is missing! The captain is very angry and says that Tom must find his treasure - or stay behind on Pirate Island for good. Tom asks his parents, his parrot, Giggles, and the crew too, but none know what has happened to the treasure. Determined to find it, Tom takes a boat and rows to lots and lots of strange islands searching for the treasure. Can the fire tigers help him? What about the Jigsaw people or the fish under the waves? Will Tom ever find the treasure? With lively language, quirky illustrations by Sharon Davey (Creative Fox) and a surprise ending, The Captains Favourite Treasure is a picture book that young readers will enjoy time and time again.
