Plunge into the pirate pool by Caryl Hart and Ed Eaves

It's rainy and cold, and Albie's so tired that he doesn't want to go swimming. But when, Albie dives into the pool he finds himself swallowed by a shark-shaped submarine! He realizes these won't be any swimming lessons because this is a pirate pool! Join Albie as he goes on a underwater treasure hunt, meets scary underwater creatures and makes some pirate friends - swimming has never been so much fun!

Plunge into the pirate pool is a story about a young boy who goes swimming and finds himself in a pirate pool, swimming into the jaws of a shark submarine where he helps pirates rescue a treasure chest and returns some octopi babies to their mother.

The story is the perfect length to share at story time or bed time. It is accompanied by some beautiful illustrations which the children will love and depict the story perfectly.

This would make a lovely gift for any young child with a love of pirates or swimming alike.

Thank you to the publishers, Simon and Schuster Children's books for sending me the book to review.
