Rezensionen

"Readers may wish that Talk Like a Pirate Day lasted all year long." - Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

"Highly enjoyable, with Gaiman's silly, singsong verses the perfect ingredient for a raucous read-aloud. Riddell's predictably fabulous illustrations are ablaze with color and detail." - Booklist

"What could possibly go awry? With consummately inventive Newbery Medalist Gaiman at the helm, nothing short of boatloads... [A] delightful yarn." - Publishers Weekly

"This is a lively pirate outing for any fan of nautical or just plain silly humor." - Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books

Neil Gaiman is the nearest thing children's books have to a rock star: if you enjoy fantasy, he is irresistible
