Matie the goat is much loved by first mate Hallie and the youngest member, Cayla...but the other members of the crew? Not so much.
The other crew members are angry that Matie took the last juice box and have started to tease the poor goat.

A new crew mate is on board - Matie the goat. The regular crew isn't happy about it either. They think because of Matie they've gone through all their ice boxes on this hot, hot day. The crew begin to bully and tease Matie, making her cry. Then Captain No Beard steps in.
A fantastic book for children. The lessons this series teaches are invaluable. This particular book teaches kids that no one is perfect. It tells them teasing and bullying are wrong. I am so thrilled with this series of books. ...more

Captain No Beard and his crew have once again embarked on a great adventure, but this time the crew is splintered into factions. Matie the goat is the focal point of the dissension, with only Hallie and Cayla thinking that Matie is pretty. The others are making fun of Matie, hurting her feelings and generally being mean. Only Fribbet the frog refuses to take sides and take a chance on alienating some of his friends.

If you have read any of the Captain No Beard series readers will realize the book has a lesson for children. This book offers a very important one about bullying. Not everyone of is the same and that is not a bad thing. We have to learn to get along.
Many of the crew, Mongo, Linus,and Polly were mad at Hallie for bringing a goat on the ship. Hallie was friends with Cayla and she liked it but Fribbit was unsure. He did not want to take sides this was not a good thing. When they called for Captai ...more
