Review of the book
"Pirate in the Family" was one of those books destined to sequels. The simplicity of the wording and the fast paced action makes it a great book for teens, but the story and details make it interesting to adults also. Hidden treasure is a common dream for all ages. The puzzle aspect adds even more intrigue to the story. I hope to see more of this authors books in the near future.

There’s a Pirate in the Family is written to include a younger audience of eight to fifteen years of age and those to whom English is the second language, yet this captivating story woven with simplicity still manages to weave an intricate plot that holds the interest of a seasoned adult reader as well. It is unique, charming, and well worth the exciting and fun read.
