Captain Pepper's Pets by Sally Grindley

Captain Pepper wants a pet. He wants to be different...he wants to be famous...so a boring old parrot just won't do. The fiery captain sets his pirate crew to find the perfect pet. They try a hippopotamus, a monkey and a leopard - each with hilariously disastrous results. Finally, they alight upon a python and Captain Pepper is delighted! But the last laugh is on him when his not-so-cuddly companion has him for dinner! At last his browbeaten crew can sail home in peace. The ideal blend of fun, identifiable characters and strong storyline, with a motley crew of pets and pirates, make this rumbustious piratical tale perfect for beginner readers.
Sally Grindley is the author of many best-selling titles including Why is the Sky Blue? (Andersen) and I Don't Want To (Methuen). Shhh! won the Children's Book Award and was shortlisted for the Smarties Book Prize - as was Peter's Place (both Andersen). Her titles for Kingfisher include another I Am Reading title, The Giant Postman, and the highly successful picture books What Are Friends For?, What Will I Do Without You? and Will You Forgive Me? Sally is also an accomplished anthologist. She lives in Gloucestershire. David Parkins is the high-profile artist of a number of successful picture books, including Tick-Tock and Prowlpuss (both Walker). Prowlpuss was shortlisted for both the Smarties Prize and the Kurt Maschler Award, and was highly commended in the National Art Library Illustration Awards. David is the artist behind Dennis the Menace's weekly adventures in the Beano. He lives with his family in Lincoln.
