Aaargh! Pirate Stories for Children

Young children love stories about pirates.  So in honor of Talk Like a Pirate Day coming up, here are some of my favorite pirate picture books . . . 

Pirate Nap: A Book of Colors by Danna Smith
Two brothers use their imaginations to turn their surroundings--from a white bandana and yellow coins to a red blanket and even their baby sister--into a colorful pirate adventure before naptime.

The Night Pirates by Peter Harris
Despite the fact that he is "only a boy," Tom convinces the band of rough, tough, little girl pirates who have come to steal the front of his house to let him join in their adventures.

Henry & the Buccaneer Bunnies by Carolyn Crimi
Captain Barnacle Black Ear, baddest of the Buccaneer Bunnies, is ashamed of his book-loving son, Henry, until the day a great storm approaches.

Bubble Bath Pirates by Jarrett Krosoczka
When pirate mommy announces bath time, it is yo ho ho and to the bath we go for her little pirates.
