Pirate Jim

About the Book

The book is about a pirate called Jim who travels the Seven Seas. It is obvious from the story that he loves being a pirate so much that it exhausts him. But he has the amazing ability to sleep for seven days. The number seven appears often in his life, a fact he has not ignored. And for that reason he recruits seven pirates to help him further sail the Seven Seas.

About the Author

Husband to a beautiful Italian woman , father to a 15 year old son . I have written stories most of my life , the roots of this one go back to a christmas tradition we had in our extended family where I would compose a poem which was full of tasks the children ( my nieces and nephews ) would have to preform before receiving their present .I have had an extensive career in the Hotel and Restaurant buisness . Now I am currently a cabbie . The flexibility of the job allows me to support my son in his additional needs . The combination of the story and the wonderful illustrations , once realised where too irresistible not to publish . There is nothing more satisfying . I feel , than a parent of a young child , bonding over an interactive story.
