I like pirates a lot. I like this book because Pete and Grimey learn that they should not fight. I think it would be fun to be in Pirate School in real life. I think that kids of all ages should read this book. Even girls would like this book.

It is one of the funniest childrens books I've ever read. My 6 year old son loves it. If you love a laugh and love Pirates then buy this book!! (good moral story too ; )

This is a very enjoyable pirate story for beginning readers or for us parents to read to our kids. It is about kids of pirates that go to school every day just like toehr kids, only they go in a school bus painted row boat to a giant pirate ship/public school. The lessons they teach are backwards to our own morals and not fair, as the kids are to be greedy and not share, and worse yet to fight when they have disputes. But these rules dont work when it is treasure hunt day on the spooky island. Although each boy claims to have found the treasure first, they quickly learn tha if they are to survice, they must ingore the pirate rules and instead cooperate, share, help out, and trust each other. Wonderful story, I highly reccommend.

My 7 year old son is obsessed with Pirates. This is his favorite book. He makes me pretend that he is Pete and his brother is Grimy and I need to substitute the names. He is autistic and learning for him is difficult, but we have taken suggestions from this book to make school fun for him as well. He learned math by using gold coins and likes to do everything the boys do in the book. It is a fantastic book which explains how important it is to share and not to fight with others. I highly recommend this book.

This book entertained us all as my son went through his 4- year old Pirate phase. Really funny. Great Price!

"It was a little scary, a little funny, and easy to read" said my son Toby, aged 6.5, after reading this excellent book. He also says there were only about ten words he did not know. The illustrations are good and they do not give the story away -- Toby had to read the words. Toby says "don't give up!".

I am the mother of two boys ,ages 3 and 4 ,who both adore Pirates.This is a fun story with a great lesson. One of our favorites. A great buy.

I ordered this because my nephew is reading level 2 books. However, when it arrived, the book actually looks a little different and says "Level 3" on it. I double checked my order to make sure this is what I ordered and it was. So this book was either changed to level 3 and the description and picture was not updated, or Amazon made an error.

When my son received this book he read it to himself right away. It is a not a short read, yet the words are the right level of reading for a 7 year old. He read it cover to cover immediately and really enjoyed it.

The pirate motif has been somewhat oversubscribed of late and the dearth of pirate products is proof. Pirate School fits perfectly into the genre and it is not a let down. The animation and narrative are entertaining and compelling enough for a 5 year old and not too rough or scary. This is a good pirate story.
