The Perfumed Pirates of Perfidy

The Charlie Small Journal #2

by Charlie Small

Charlie Small’s second journal of his adventures was found encased in ice, high on a glacial plateau in the Himalayas. It details even more remarkable deeds and thrilling acts aboard the Jolly Roger with the dastardly lady-pirates of perfidy–and a lot more besides. Charlie Small is a keen amateur explorer. His interests include climbing trees, collecting things, playing computer games, and football. He also enjoys conversing in the secret language of the gorillas. His present whereabouts is unknown, but we understand that he’s hoping to be home in time for tea.

Este libro debería contener una etiqueta "nutrimental" en la portada que diga: "Exceso de Aventuras".

El primer libro fue entretenido pero este segundo libro es aventura tras aventura, no da un momento para que lector se aburra, además de ser de fácil lectura.

Hace años que salieron estos libros no me llamaron la atención y cuando los quise comprar estaban agotados en todas partes. Hace algunos meses logré conseguir el 5, 6 y el 7 para mi hija, pero hace poco en un stand de libros usados vi los primeros 4 nuevos y todavía envueltos en sus plásticos originales y no dudé en comprarlos inmediatamente, creo que la colección son 12. Valen la pena sin duda.

Second journal of the “amazing, astonishing, incredible and true adventures” of Charlie Small begins where book one ended with Charlie’s capture by a band of female pirates. Throughout the story Charlie continues his quick thinking ways to conquer a giant sea slug, sink two pirate ships, and rescue the captain by making a kite from a giant leaf. All before finally escaping himself and being carried off to his next adventure by a puffer-fish balloon. As in the first book the fantasy world of Charlie Small is a bit outrageous with a predictable plot more than a few amusing black & white drawings.

Una historia completamente para niños. Creo que es disfrutable sobretodo porque tiene ilustraciones de muy buena calidad. Pienso que un niño la pasaría genial leyéndolo 🙌✨ sin embargo, algunas situaciones que se plantean con tiempo se resuelven muy de prisa y pareciera entonces que cada problema se mira enorme cuando la solución es bastante sencilla.

This childhood book just burst into my brain apropos of nothing so I gotta add it. I remember really liking it though.

I think that this book is really good, not the best but good. It was enjoyable, even though he had to live with females.

I read these books to my class, 6-9 year olds. All the students love it! Many went to find other sequels. Really great for reluctant readers
