Reseña del editor

Our favorite porcine-brother duo is back in another kid-friendly seashore adventure.

Fergus and Dink love playing at the beach. But when Dink wakes up from his nap in a crabby mood, it's up to big brother Fergus to pull him out of it. Does the little fella want to take a swim? Build a sand castle? Have a juice box? Aaargh! Only one thing will tame the tantrum - when Fergus invites Dink to play with his new pirate ship of sand, and gives him the starring role as pirate captain. Sometimes it feels right to squint your eyes and act like a scurvy dog of a pirate. And with a little brotherly love, you might even forget what was so terrible in the first place.
