COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Cute book submitted by VickyB77 on July 25, 2012, 10:48am Nothing like buried treasure and friends to make a great birthday party!

Poor fit submitted by emjane on August 9, 2013, 9:19am Pirate Pete finds a treasure map and follows it to reveal a chest that holds a surprise.

The highlight of this early reader book are Chapman's illustrations. Though the cartoons have a novice quality, the jewel toned color palette and detailed backgrounds will give readers plenty to look at and engage with on the page. The story of Pirate Pete and his surprise is amusing. Unfortunately, the book is not a great fit for any particular reading level. Each page only has a single sentence on it, leading one to think it is for the earliest reading level. However, it also uses more challenging words-- like treasure, island, and climbed-- which may be too much for readers at that level.

good book submitted by cayleyrocks on August 13, 2018, 11:31am It could use a little more detail in between sentences. I think it's a cute book.
