Captain Pepper's Pets Summary

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.
