From Organization / 国外机构评价:
Kindergarten-Grade 3?Maisie Pickles's parents hustle her off to Captain Abdul's Pirate School to toughen her up because she likes writing poems and painting pictures. She learns her lessons so well that when she overhears a plot to kidnap the students and hold them for ransom, she deftly organizes a mutiny. After subduing the teaching staff, the youngsters set sail for the West Indies and live a boisterously adventurous life, stealing from pirates and sending the treasure home. Captain Abdul reckons his school a success to have graduated such a crew, and Maisie herself is free to pursue her artistic interests. McNaughton's bold cartoons are well suited to the subject. His pirates convey just the right robust exaggeration; bold lines express exuberant movement and attitude. The text, written in the form of Maisie's diary, gives the impression of hand lettering on parchment and is spiced with lusty dialogue. The book is rife with broad humor. The student body, while multiethnic, is definitely not P.C. While the characters' stereotypical identities play no real part in the story, librarians should be alerted to the fact that there are visual and verbal jokes and plays on words at the expense of everyone. Chop is a "person of size," Ching Yih has slanted eyes and large white teeth, and Rosemary Lavender is crudely masculine.

Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价:
Arrrrgh! Life on the bounding main! Kids are crazy about pirate stories, and this delightful book is well-loved by my granddaughters. The pirates are so delightfully drawn, and the captions so witty, that adults will enjoy reading it as much as the kids enjoy hearing it. Practice your pirate voice before you start! We love the diary format -- a new student (who turns out at the end to be a girl named Maisie) is sent to pirate school to toughen her up because she likes to write poetry and paint pictures. A good-natured mutiny occurs and Maisie finds a way to be a pirate and still pursue her artistic interests. The pirate-as-adorable-imp theme is a familiar one, however unfounded in reality. What is it about pirates that we like so much? Maybe it's the fact that they make their own rules. In "Pirate School" the students wind up rejecting much of the rough pirate behavior, turning away from meanness while keeping the freedom and adventure. That's what we'd hope for -- the antithesis of "Lord of the Flies"! Fun story, great drawings -- highly recommended by me and my granddaughters.
