Synopsis

When Neep Neep embarked on a piratical correspondence course, he had no idea that the Golden Octopus, the ultimate authority in piracy, viewed him as a mere nuisance to be disposed of. But Neep was determined to realise his dream of becoming a pirate consultant, even if it meant dragging his strange comrades along for the ride.

With the Scarlet Daisy, who fancies a tutu as appropriate pirate garb, Mr Bones, as skinny as a rake, Ensephilephtor Boom, a member of the Sons of the Pinched Fuse, and the certifiable Mad Dog Jenkins, they set sail in pursuit of the legendary treasure of Capability Jones and the lost island of El Bongo, a myth most pirates scoff at.

Only Daisy and Bones believe the fable is true, but with such an eccentric crew, anything can happen.

"Overboard!" is an uproarious, high-octane adventure on the open sea, where to err is human, but to "aar!" is pirate...

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

When apprentice fisherman Neep signs himself up for a piratical endeavours correspondence course with the aim in mind of becoming a pirate consultant he is not aware that the Golden Octopus, the nautical governing piratical body see him as nothing more than a nuisance which very much is in need of being disposed of. Thus Neep inadvertently sets in motion a chain of events that will involve him, The Scarlet Daisy (who has some very odd ideas of what comprises standard pirate dress), Mr Bones (very thin), Ensephilephtor Boom (founder member of the "Sons of the Pinched Fuse", and "Mad Dog" Jenkins (Mad. Very, very mad),in search of the fabled treasure of Capability Jones and the lost island of El Bongo which most pirates agree doesn't exist. Only Daisy and Bones seem to think otherwise... "Overboard!" is a whimsical, humorous adventure set on the high seas, where to err is human, but to "aar!" is pirate...
