CBC Best Books of the Year (Under Five), 2019
Is being a pirate only for boys? That's not what Daniela thinks.
She dreams of becoming a pirate on the legendary ship, the Black Croc. She searches and searches through the seven seas, until one day, she finally finds it. But oh dear! These pirates seem to be a little chauvinist. Particularly Captain Choppylobe, who will make Daniela go through difficult challenges to prove her worth as a pirate. Will she make it? Will they let her be part of the crew?
A story about equality and realizing your dreams.
