Spin to Survive: Pirate Peril

English

By (author): Emily Hawkins

Illustrated by: Ruby Fresson

The third book in the unique Spin to Survive series takes you centuries into the past and onto the high seas, where you will cross swords with swashbuckling scoundrels and mutinous marauders.

Your father, the good-hearted pirate Captain Samuel Swift, has entrusted you with his cutlass and the tattered map leading to his buried treasure. But this is the Caribbean in the 18th century; danger is on the horizon, just below the surface, and perhaps even on board your very own ship...

Will you head out to search for the treasure, sign on with a crew of pirate-hunters, or embark on the riskiest course of all: joining forces with the pirates who betrayed your father?

With your trusty Survival Spinner (included), make your choice and spin to survive. Flip back and forth through the book as you play through a new adventure with every read, where each scenario might lead to certain death, fame and fortune, or any number of unexpected surprises. On every page, explore a lawless world where ruthless colonisers clash with oceanic outlaws and loyalty is bought for a few pieces of eight. Discover tips for surviving at sea, and put the story in context with historical facts and illustrations.

Play your way past a barrage of dangers as you fight to survive, facing off against hurricanes, sharks, cannon-fire and cut-throats. Prepare for adventure... the journey is bound to be stormy!

About Emily Hawkins

Once a childrens book editor Emily Hawkins is now a full-time author. Her work has been featured on the New York Times bestseller list (Oceanology 2009) as well as winning the Childrens Travel Book of the Year Award (Atlas of Animal Adventures 2016). Along with her background in childrens non-fiction Emily has a strong interest in myth folklore and storytelling and has written several titles in the Lost Atlases and Spin to Survive series (Wide Eyed Editions). In 2020 she wrote A Natural History of Fairies which has been translated into twelve languages selling more than 100000 copies worldwide.R. Fresson makes illustrations that nod to the past. She hand-draws in pen and ink then colours digitally inspired by the print processes of early 20th century comics and magazines. Her line-work is lodged in the ligne-claire style made famous by Hergé Joost Swarte Bob de Moor and Theo van den Boogaard among many others. Humour is an important aspect to R. Fressons work and she continues to develop a witty practice with a dextrous vintage aesthetic working with clients including the New York Times Monocle The Guardian GQ and The New Yorker.
