Wanna Read A Good Book?











Dylan loves to draw and write! This is one of his first books, a fascinating look into a day in the life of a real pirate! He did almost all of this on his own. He just needed help on the blends "sh" and "th". Let's face it-- you can't write much of a book without those blends, especially when you are talking about ships. So, put on your phonetic hats and enjoy this great read. In case your hat is rusty, below I will provide you with a translation!
1. One day there was the highest castle.
2. A pirate lived in the castle. A ship was leaving and it had the pirate in it.
3. Then, the pirate saw another pirate. They took out their cans of cannon balls and shot at each other. (Notice their smiles as they shoot at each other. It must be a game, right?)
4. Then the ship kept going...
5. into the night.
6. The ship kept going until day
7. until he got to his castle. He said, "I'll make friends with the pirate I shooted."
8. So he invited the pirate to his castle.
9. The other pirate's boat arrived at the castle.
10. Let's play a game.
(Now isn't that a lovely story with a brilliant moral at the end?)
