Spying a packed port, Pirate & Penguin are sure they'll be gettin' a crew in two shakes of a first mate's booty bottom. But when their small but mighty man-of-war fails to make waves in a sea of larger vessels, they resolve to renovate.

It turns out Penguin has quite the penchant for the arrrrts, and soon they've got the funnest flagship on the Seven Seas, complete with a slide, a swing, and a cannon that shoots bubbles. But instead of new recruits itchin to join, the new improvements just get laughs, and though pirate isn't bothered by yellow-bellied landlubbers insulting his ship, he'll accept absolutely NO insulting of his fine, feathered Ground Parrot!

Disappointed but determined, Pirate & Penguin set off once again. Only then do they realize that their unconventional upgrades might not have attracted four pirate-y pairs of strong arrrrrrrms, but they did call to an eight-legged creature who just might suit their crew even better.

Step right up, seadogs and scallywags, for this wacky, colorful adventure ready to remind readers that being unapologetically you is the best way to find your crew.
