Book Synopsis
Not everyone is lucky enough to have a Gran who used to be a pirate. But even though she has settled by the seaside, Gran still gets into mischief. So if you want to avoid trouble, don't make her mad. Don't criticise her cooking - and never EVER look underneath her bed... 'Very funny and packed full of ideas!' - Charlie Higson, author of the Young Bond series and co-creator of The Fast Show.

Trade Review
"A feisty story, with plenty of pratfalls that older children will appreciate." * Time Out (UK) * "Forshall's comic style illustrations provide a treasure trove of clues to Gran's piratical past. . . . Durrant's swashbuckling story of Gran's escapades, both past and present, and how she met and married Grandpa is awash with witty asides and humour." * Books for Keeps * "Pirate Gran . . . is indisputable truth, picture book confirmation, that grannies were once unbridled girls, bold maidens, bodacious damsels, not homespun grannies knitting in their rockers." * Southern Gazette *
