About the book:

​A lovely children’s book about pirates, written by Urška Fartelj - a mom who listened to her children and created a book based on their wishes.

Book reviews:

The book is a good idea for all moms and dads, who wish to mix up a daily routine or to organise a birthday party, but lack inventive ideas that are quick and simple at the same time. It’s s book with an interesting set of practical ideas for relaxed hours and a true guidebook for those with a sweet tooth. It’s a fun book, one can read it in “a gulp” or in “parts”.

Hello
My daughters are a bit older (9 and 11 this year), but found the book to be inspirational and a good base for evolving their own birthday party ideas. Each year we prepare the celebrations at home, but this year we didn’t have to be so involved with the preparations. The youngest one prepared a Pirates’ Day, she came up with games, a song, a dance and even renamed the ordinary snacks into the pirate ones. It was a lot of fun.
Overall a delightful book, beautiful illustrations and keep up the good work. I’ve decided to write to you, because I’ve come to realise that people too often don’t respond positively or give praise where it’s due.
 
Best regards, Alenka
 
P.S. For my eldest daughter’s birthday, we used the recipe for corn tortillas… delicious!
Hello!
Thank you for the inspiration and ideas. Our pirate party was a hit!

There are so many big ideas hidden in small heads. A great book, interesting ideas and beautiful illustrations!

​Although the picture is a bit of poor quality, I just had to share with you the enthusiasm while reading your book. The hat, the sword and the map to a hidden treasure are all prepared. The next couple of days are going to be spent in the spirit of the pirates.
The book is wonderful and it immediately captivated the interest of my two girls.
