Captain Pugwash is by far the bravest, most handsome buccaneer… Well, perhaps not. He’s just as greedy, cowardly and silly as ever- and up to all his old tricks in this collection of four new stories.  The crew turn vegetarian, wicked Cut-throat Jake is beaten by a parrot, there is a fierce battle for control on the poop deck, and the pirates find an imaginative alternative to walking the plank.
