Descripción editorial
The fourth book in the New York Times-bestselling Magnolia Says DON'T! series that started with If You Ever Want to Bring an Alligator to School, Don't! is another loud and cautionary tale of what not to do...when you visit Santa.
If your dad says you're going to meet a bearded guy with a red suit and a bag full of treasures...he is not talking about meeting a pirate! But Magnolia has already invited the misbehaving swashbuckler to jump in line to meet Santa. So what if pirates are on the Naughty List? She'll just teach this one to change his scurvy ways--no plundering or sword-fighting or plank-walking allowed! Plus, Santa is happy to hear everyone's wish list. Right?
It's YO HO HO versus HO HO HO in this rowdy and raucous holiday guide on how not to meet Santa, from Elise Parsley, the bestselling creator of If You Ever Want to Bring an Alligator to School, DON'T!
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Pirate meets Santa what could possibly go wrong? In this holiday-themed addition to the series that began with If You Want to Bring an Alligator to School, Don't!, an enthusiastic heroine buddies up with a pirate while waiting to see Santa. Following her "don't do as I do" formula, Parsley describes the pirate's naughty-list shenanigans, which include interrupting Christmas carolers with a round of sea chanteys and brandishing a swordfish at the crowd. With the pirate's red suit, scraggly beard, and Jolly Roger bandana, he looks like Santa's creepy, long lost sibling. An elf freak-out and Santa walking the (mall fountain) plank ratchets up the chaos. Readers should appreciate that the pirate's moment of redemption is quickly eclipsed by his undeniably naughty nature. Ages 4 8.
