A laugh-out-loud, swashbuckling romp, in which Emilie and her brother William set out to rescue their parents from the horrible, smelly pirate king McSnottbeard. Whisked from the high seas, through prehistoric lands, into a warlocks's castle and finally to the pirates' clifftop fortress, they tackle dinosaurs, zombies and the most ingenious trap ever devised. Packed with more gags than you can wave a kipper at.
