Papa Is a Pirate by Katharina Grossmann Hensel
3.0

Age: Preschool - 1st grade

"Is Papa really a pirate? Does he really sail to faraway islands and find hidden treasures and tame sea monsters? Does he really spend all day at the office? Is his chin sometimes prickly? Does he sometimes smell like the sea?" (Goodreads feature review).

Full of adventure and extravagant tales, this dad tells of his mysterious life at sea--though he can't quite get the pirate vocabulary right. Cute, but has sloppy writing, this book opens up an opportunity for dad to creatively engage with his child.
