This series is both fun and educational, with projects to intensify the learning experience. Step-by-step photographs ensure that children can carry out the projects by themselves, or with limited supervision. Stirring fact-packed text and a useful timeline and glossary make the series a useful supplement to schoolwork, or as additional learning tool at home. Take a look back at what it was like to be a pirate; find out who they were and how they lived, and learn of their swashbuckling adventures. If you dare, come face-to-face with Blackbeard and Anne Bonny. Practical piratical projects show you how to make a treasure chest, fashion a cutlass and dress like a pirate captain.
