Jodie Lancet-Grant: Parrots, Pirates and Nautical Adventures
Argh me hearties! Jump aboard for a swashbuckling adventure on the high seas as author Jodie Lancet-Grant introduces her brand-new picture book, The Pirate Mums! In it we meet Billy and his two dazzling mums, who always make a splash. Whether they’re singing sea shanties at the top of their voices or dancing a jig in the lounge with their pet parrot, things are certainly never boring. Sometimes, Billy wishes they were a bit more normal, until an action-packed school trip to the seaside almost goes bottoms up and Billy’s mums step in to save the day. Grab your eyepatch and cardboard sword to join this merry band of pirates on their adventures!
This is a pre-recorded event from the 2021 Edinburgh International Book Festival.
