Captain Beastlie’s Pirate Party in the New Statesman

Amanda Craig has reviewed Captain Beastlie’s Pirate Party, written by Lucy Coats and illustrated by Chris Mould, for the New Statesman, as one of the best new books for autumn. Craig writes: “Featuring a fantastically filthy captain getting an unexpected present from his crew, it is irresistible: Lucy Coats’s uproarious text and Chris Mould’s colourfully baroque cartoons are disgustingly funny for those aged three and above.” You can read the full review here.
