March Picture book of the month: Pirates Love Underpants by Claire Freedman and Ben Cort

Our March picture book of the month is the latest book in the wonderful Underpants series, which must boast the most extensive collection of Y-Fronts fiction has ever seen. We've seen Aliens Love Underpants, Dinosaurs Love Underpants and now Pirates.

Pirates Love Underpants follows the pirates as they sail on the pirate ship Black Bloomer past angry crocs, sharks in fancy knickers, and through gurgling swamps, on a quest to find...the fabled Pants of Gold.

My son loves pirates and we can't wait to read Pirates Love Underpants. He loves this series of books! They're well written and funny.

My DD has the alien and underpants book after going through the lovin aliens phase, at the minute it gets read cover to cover everynight at bedtime :-) x

I bought DS Aliens in Underpants recently - he loves it, and DD's been reading Aliens in Underpants Save the World at school. Great books, with lots of humour that appeals to parents too! I think we'll look out for this one and the Dinosaur one in the library and join in the chat :)

Done! We love the series and dd currently obsessed with pirates. So this would be wonderful. By the way there is a placeholder LINK instead of an actual link on that page
