hello there it's ani i'm so glad you're here today we're going to read how i became a pirate if you have a copy go get it so you can read along with me [Music] how i became a pirate written by melinda long illustrated by david shannon pirates have greed teeth would they have any teeth at all i know about pirates because one day when i was at the beach building a sand castle and minding my own business a pirate ship sailed into view i knew what it was because its flag had a skull and crossbones on it and because i could hear the pirates singing hey ho blow the man down they were a little off-key i tried to tell dad but he was busy setting up the beach umbrella i tried to tell bob but she was busy slathering my baby sister with sudblock so i went back to my sand castle but i kept an eye on the pirates by then they were rowing to shore when they landed the head pirate climbed out of the boat and yelled ahi thermity be this the spanish mean no i said this is north beach shiver me timbers the pirates said we must have taken a wrong turn at bora bora he walked around by sad castle he looked at the boat then yelled back to his crew he's a digger he is and a good one to boot a good one to boot the others agreed what be our name matey the head pirate asked jeremy jacobs sir i told him well jeremy jacob he said you're looking at braid beard and his crew we've been needing a digger like yourself we've a chest of treasure to marry i treasure the other shouted you're coming with us bradbeer told me i didn't think mom and dad would mind as long as i got back in time for soccer practice the next day that's how i became a pirate as soon as we were on board braid beard showed me the chest of gold and jewels got to find a safe place for this here treasure it's high time we were off he announced we're off we all shouted and then we set sail there was plenty to do on board the pirates taught me to sing sea chanties the louder the better and to say real pirates stuff like landlubber and scurvy dog by dinner time i could speak pirate perfectly i also learned pirate manners braid beard pounded his fists on the table and yelled dune the hatchimal ladies doing the hutch we all shouted braid beard gulped his food and said hand over the meat the meat we all roared nobody told us to finish our spinach there wasn't any or to chew up our carrots they weren't allowed on board we talked with our mouths full and nobody said please or thank you after dinner i tried to teach the pirates to play soccer braid beard kicked the ball and yelled argh sucker iron sucker the crew yelled then everybody dove for the ball at once and it rolled right off the deck after it me hearties braid beard commanded after it we all whispered we fought over who would go get the ball but it didn't matter anyway because a shark came along and swallowed it in one gulp so much for soccer by now it was past my bedtime but nobody tells pirates to go to bed to take a bath or to brush their teeth maybe that's why their teeth are green pirates sleep with one eye open just in case and they don't change into pajamas unless they want to pirates don't do anything they don't want to except for maybe swabbing the decks i wanted to be a pirate forever but then i found out what else they don't do when i couldn't stay awake any longer i asked braid beard to tuck me in and read me a story took you in he bellowed pirates don't talk no took in the crew cried and the only thing they had to read was a map don't you have any books i asked braid beard looked confused books i didn't even bother to ask about a good night kiss it wasn't easy to fall asleep without a story but i was finally dozing off when a storm broke thunder boomed and lightning flashed i tried to hide under the covers as waves slammed up against the ship but i kept falling out of my havoc i couldn't find anyone in the cabin they were all on deck lower the sails braid beard shouted button down the hatches everybody ran around yelling and lowering and battening nobody had time to sit close and tell me it would be over soon nobody even noticed me i decided that i didn't want to be a pirate after all just then flash crash crack lightning hit the mast and split it right down the middle well we do know killed one of the pirates we'll have to turn back called another but the treasure hullard braid beard where will we bury the treasure i stepped forward maybe i can help i shouted over the wind i think i know the perfect digging spot when the storm was over we rode back to shore and buried the chest we drew a map so we could find the treasure again but i don't think i'll need it after that the pirates repaired the ship and got ready to set sail before they left braid beard handed me a flag and said yeah make a fine pirate jeremy jacob guard that treasure well we'll be back to get it soon enough soon enough the crew repeated and if you ever need us braid beard added just run the jolly roger up yonder pool up yonder pool the other shouted and maybe i will but not today i have soccer practice jeremy jacob had quite an adventure there were some things he really liked about being a pirate weren't there but then he found out there were some things he didn't do you remember what some of those things were that's right there were no books no good night kisses and no tucking he decided he didn't want to be a
