Parent of a 4 and 7 year old Written by hannahrose April 28, Great for all ages! Boys and girls will love this book about pirates and treasure and everything high seas! Adults will love it, too!
Teen, 14 years old Written by MikaylaaMadisonn August 1, This book is awful. Completely boring all the way through. It is the worst book I have ever read, and that is saying a lot. Kid, 10 years old November 15, I think it is best for kids aged 10 and up. Not because of reading content considering how young you can be nowadays for this sort of violence Is it any good? Talk to your kids about Can it still appeal to modern kids? What makes a book a classic?
