Description
Whisked away by his old adversaries, the Perfumed Pirates of Perfidy, Charlie is put to work aboard their new galleon. Held captive and forced to raid an unsuspecting ship with the bloodthirsty crew, Charlie is sure things can't get much worse... Until the pirates spot an enormous blunt-headed, sharp-toothed whale. A terrible battle ensues as the pirates try to harpoon the beast and Charlie tries his best to stop them.
Will Charlie and the whale escape from the evil pirate crew's clutches? And, more importantly, will Charlie Small EVER find his way home?

Person
Charlie Small is a keen amateur explorer. His interests include conversing in the secret language of the gorillas, hypnotizing sharks and snow-scooting. He is also rather handy with a cutlass and a lasso. Charlie's current whereabouts is a matter of some speculation, however, his mother assures us that he will be home in time for tea . . .
