Wilf, everybody’s favorite worrier, is back after having saved the world from destruction by his evil neighbor Alan. This time Alan has another evil plan to destroy the world, and Wilf has to stop him. But first he must overcome all the things he worries about, like garden gnomes and giant squids and dark caves that could have bears and bats and scorpions.

Wilf the Mighty Worrier Battles a Pirate by Georgia Pritchett sees Wilf on Alan’s pirate ship, sailing into unknown lands as he tries to stop Alan and get his sister’s sand bucket and shovel back. Techniques used throughout the book, like narration that speaks directly to the reader, words in bold, large type, and quirky illustrations are sure to appeal to readers aged 8 to 11. Once again, Wilf shines as a champion of worriers everywhere.

The publisher provided me with a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.

I love Wilf! He's a big worrier who is trying to cope with his fears. This is a wonderful series. The subject matter is very age-appropriate, the illustrations are expressive, and the humor is amazing!

Needs more dinosaurs

My 6 year old daughter rated this book after we read it together, she has apparently docked 1 star because it could do with more dinosaurs.... actually there are no dinosaurs in this book and I fear she is a bit young for juarassic park....

Kids will love Wilf! He's unsure of himself but in a bumbling way he comes out ahead. I will hand this to a few silly 2nd grade boys.

This book was a lot of fun. I was rather shocked that it contained profanity, since it is meant for 2nd - 5th grade, but otherwise it was a good read.

[Jonna Higgins-Freese]

Run, don't walk, to your nearest bookstore and get these books for the 8-12 year old in your life. They are hysterical.

[Virginia]

This was a cute story.

[Amna Qazi]

Best book ever! Very adventurous!

[Jenny Vee]

Not as good as the first. I missed those long sentences that made me giggle; there just weren't as many of the signature characteristics I came to love. Still fun, though. I do have to say, I could have done without the multiple "damns" and "to hell with..." seeing as how I read these to my children. I was very surprised by that. They quite frequent for a children's book. If my son didn't enjoy the story so much, I probably would have rated it 3 stars.

[Kelly Carey]

This book includes illustrations and silliness throughout. The author speaks directly to the reader and often gives the reader warnings and directions. There are numerous puns and words are often taken literally. Fans of Timmy Failure might like this book.

[Lene]

The kids enjoyed the narration; the comedy of the narrator's comments to the readers worked perfectly. The plot line and the characters, though - neither they nor I cared about at all.

[Terry]

Wilf is a Worrier, with a capital "W." No matter what it is (or even may never be) Wilf is going to worry. Absurd events and zany illustrations will engage readers in this high seas adventure. Perfectly zany or over the top? Read the full review - and add your opinion, too!
