"THIS BOOK IS SERIOUSLY FUNNY!!!" Phil Earle, author of Finn's Epic Fails

Get ready to set sail on a hilarious new swashbuckling adventure series from bestselling and award-winning author, Jenny Pearson, stunningly illustrated in two-colour by Paula Bowles. Perfect for fans of How to Train Your Dragon.

Wilbur doesn't believe he's destined to be a great pirate. He hates heights, gets seasick and is too scared to fire a cannon.
But Wilbur, together with shipmates Ellie and Gilbert, is taking his Level One Pirate Grading. They're in a race to find the greatest treasure of all: one of the legendary Jewels of the Sea. How's he ever going to win?

With cursed treasure, rival crews, cannon-blasting battles and booby-trapped islands, danger is never far away. Can Wilbur survive the storm and become the pirate he's meant to be?
