A nice little package! Like the Series of Unfortunate Events, this book is not as easy as it looks, and between the pirate slang and the old fashioned vocabulary, it might work best as a read aloud. But for precocious young readers, it tells a good yarn with humor, heart, and a touch of feminism. And the pirates illustrations reminded me of Kate Beaton!

absolutely delightful book for teens and I dont know how or why I knew about it. I decided to read it and was so pleased. And I also loved the illustration...

Really looking forward to more in this series. The dry humor is fun to read and I liked seeing how the adventure slowly changed the girls. Just a little.

There are so many subtle jokes aimed towards adults in here that it reminds me of Shrek only completely clean. They will go over a kid's head but make an adult laugh.

Hmm, slightly bland? lovely premise but these girls would rather be at home darning socks, watching the grass grow, eating cheese sandwiches and reading the dictionary than off on adventures... gorgeously illustrated with some entertaining secondary characters, so I'll almost definitely be reading part 2...
