The Pirate Booklist : 32 Chapter Books about PIRATES!
I’m so excited about our new book club linky party appropriately called The Saturday Book Club.
Our first club meeting/Linky Party will be September 14th where we’ll be reading and creating our way through a Pirate book theme. Since I didn’t want to leave everyone hunting for pirate books to jump into, I decided to create a resource list that our Saturday Book Club Linky participants can use if they’d like.
So with a hearty “Arrrggghhh Matey!” here is my nearly complete Pirate Booklist. If you have a pirate book you don’t see on this list please share it with me so we can add.
