Synopsis

No one knows the full story of Charlie Small. At least, not yet. His original battered journal was found washed up on a remote, windswept shore in the north of England. This second volume was found encased in ice, high on a glacial plateau in the Himalayas. It details even more remarkable deeds and thrilling acts aboard the Jolly Roger with the dastardly lady-pirates of perfidy - and a lot more besides.

Editorial Reviews

"Buccaneering boys' books to grip the most reluctant reader" - Daily Telegraph

"...should prove irresistible to readers of seven and upward" - Becky Stradwick, The Bookseller

"My seven year old couldn't put it down" - Rachel Ayers Nelson, School Librarian

"The two volumes - with clear potential for more - have cracked the difficult territory of writing adventure tha maintains pace.This is achieved by packing in imaginative scenarios and exciting set-piece scenes. Charlie's scrapes and escapes are mapped step by step, like a good action stunt, with a balance of detail and pace. Production quality is also excellent." - TES
