    James Preller

    James Preller is the author of the popular Jigsaw Jones mystery books, which have sold more than 10 million copies since 1998. He is also the author of Bystander, named a 2009 Junior Library Guild Selection, Six Innings, an ALA Notable Book, and Mighty Casey, his own twist on the classic poem, “Casey at the Bat.” In addition to writing full-time, Preller plays in a men’s hardball league and coaches Little League. He compares coaching kids to “trying to hold the attention of a herd of earthworms.” He lives in Delmar, New York with his wife, three children, cats and dog.

      We Fullers are not a family of art connoisseurs. The least so was my late father-in-law, who, ironically, landed a job at an art college. Back in the 1980s, Papa – as we called him – transitioned from a long banking career to the director of finance

      A wonderful children's story. Great for introducing your child to the wonders of first grade. I enjoyed reading it aloud in a pirate voice, and my son laughed and laughed. Now I have to get the Guide to Recess too.

      The pirate gets tiresome.

      I think this is a fun pirate readaloud, if you don't mind having to explain some of the words to the younger set. Yarrr, mateys!
    • 3/5
      Synopsis: Arr! It’s the first day of first grade, and it’s all hands on deck for a young pirate and his crew. How much trouble can they get into? What will they do at recess? And, most important, what treasure awaits them at school?Though the illustrations are beautifully done and children are sure to enjoy the contrast between what the pirates are doing and what the boy and his classmates are doing, I’m not convinced this book is a success for its targeted audience. The text is rather challenging for K-2nd and may require some interpretation from adults so that the young reader can successfully follow the story. However, it would be a great read aloud for Talk like a Pirate Day.Though the targeted audience is K-2nd (specifically 1st grade), my recommendation would be for 4th grade and up.
