My toddler is absolutely obsessed with pirates the past few months, so yesterday I bought this book, along with some others, to supplement the cool pirate kids books she already has (eg My Granny Is a Pirate). This one is a lot of fun, and we've already read it several times over.
There's a lot for little ones to love: pirates, lots of silliness, cheesy-smelling feet, sharks, undersea adventures, some cool rhyming. It's a well-written tale with a fun sing-song quality, backed up by delightful illustrations. Pirate Pete gets ostracised by his shipmates, forced to walk the plank when they can no longer tolerate his stinkiness - but after being marooned he finds a way to be helpful.
It's a cool wee story that's silly and fun while also having some wee themes about friendship etc and everyone being useful, etc. Hits the mark as a re-readable tale that could become a favourite.
As an added bonus there's a 'find x on every page' aspect to add to the fun on re-reads, as well as some stinky stickers. The story itself is very good - whether you like the add-ons or not may come down to personal preference.

This one was pure silly and funny. But it encouraged not bathing. Mileage may vary.
