Summary from the back of  the book: When three pirates and a duck come across a valuable “sea treasure” it’s every pirate for himself. Join the “pirates who don’t do anything” as they learn that sharing with others can really save the day!

Mary’s Review:  Veggie Tales teach great values and morals.  In this book three pirates who don’t like to do anything and a duck learn a several valuable lessons and find a real pirate’s treasure when they learn how to share. The illustrations are cute, adorable, fun and colorful. 


 I recommend this book for ages 4-10.
