About this listen

Don't call this mermaid 'little' – call her 'captain,' unless you want to walk the plank.

Mary is in love with the so-called prince of Charles Town, except he doesn't love her back. Since she's a mermaid, being broken-hearted means she'll – poof! – turn into sea-foam.

But instead, Mary finds herself pulled out of the sea and up onto a pirate ship. To survive, she joins them. But Mary isn't willing to just sing the yo-ho-hos. She wants the pirate life, all of it, and she's ready to make a splash ... by becoming captain. But when Blackbeard dies suddenly, Mary has a chance to become so much more – Pirate King ... or Queen. She won't let anyone stop her – not Blackbeard's cute son, not her best friend from back under the sea and certainly not everyone who says she can't be a pirate just because she's a girl.

She may not be the best man for the job, but she'll definitely prove that she's worth her salt.

Critic Reviews

'This swashbuckling tale anchored by historical details is a treasure.' (Kirkus Reviews)
'This wild tale is in high, humorous gear. Fans of the authors' Lady Janies books already know to expect a fun and fluffy historical fiction ride, but this pirate tale goes far beyond expectations, giving a rollicking adventure on the high seas ...' (Booklist, starred review)
