Great pictures and titles. Also incudes an indexp and glossary The book is a simple reader with the guide summing up most of what’s on the page for lower readers. Multiple pages include fold-outs with even more information or the answers to questions that students might ask. Good for primary levels. General overview of pirate life and ships
