Cheer up, mateys! Everyone's favorite pirate captain is back and up to his usual tricks. Pirates of the Caribbean 3: The Movie Storybook will captivate fans as they follow the cross-seas adventures of Captain Jack Sparrow, Elizabeth Swann, and Will Turner in this beautifully photographed retelling of the third film. Fans would rather walk the plank than miss out on the double-triple-crossings and heart-pounding battles of the Pirates of the Caribbean 3.
Okay, I know what you’re thinking. Tui? What kind of name is that? Is it short for something?
Nope. Among the many great things to come out of New Zealand (the Lord of the Rings movies, cats that paint, my mom) is a bird called the tui—not as well known as the kiwi, but a heck of a lot noisier!
I was born July 31 (same birthday as Harry Potter!) in Caracas, Venezuela, and lived in Asuncion, Paraguay; Miami, Florida; and Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, before moving to New Jersey in high school, where I started doing theatre—mostly backstage work, because (a) it was fun, and (b) you got to hang out in the dark with cute boys. (Er, I mean . . . because it was artistically fulfilling, yes.)
I graduated from Williams College in ’98 and I currently live in Boston with my husband, my perfect new baby, and my adorable yoodle Sunshine (what’s a yoodle? A puppy that’s three-quarters poodle and one-quarter Yorkshire terrier, of course!).
Much to my parents’ relief, I abandoned my theatrical aspirations after college for the far more stable and lucrative career of fiction writing.
My first two official books were beginning readers, part of Grosset & Dunlap’s “First Friends” series for kids learning to read. MEET MO AND ELLA is tough to find now, but FUN WITH MO AND ELLA should still be out there somewhere.
My first novel for teenagers was THIS MUST BE LOVE, which retells Shakespeare’s play A Midsummer Night’s Dream in a modern-day high school, from the POV of the two heroines, Hermia and Helena.
And now I'm writing in a new project called SEEKERS! It's a children's book series that I'm writing with Erin Hunter. Check out my blog to find out more!
ok this is the storybook from the 3rd movie where Captain Barbossa is brought back by Tia Dalma aka Calypos in human form to help brink back Captain Jack Sparrow from the bottom of Davy Jones Locker because him and The Black Pear are the only ones that can stop Lord Beckett from killing off all the pirates using Davy Jones pet The Kracken..so Will Turner and Elizabeth and the Crew of the Black Pearl return for another insane adventure based off the movie..enjoy
This is actually not the version that I read but I can’t seem to find the audio version on here. My version was also the complete version of the movie novelized and not the junior version.
Loved the film, loved the book version too, great encapsulation of the movie into a movie / picture book tie in and wonderful shots from the actual film.
