What is The Pirates Next Door Starring the Jolley-Rogers about?
When the Jolley-Rogers, a family of pirates, arrive in the quiet seaside town of Dull-on-Sea to repair their ship, the neighbours are quick to spread rumours. Only Matilda welcomes Jim Lad, the youngest pirate, and soon they become firm friends. When the family sails away, the townspeople discover treasure buried in every garden and realise they have judged the pirates unfairly. Matilda is sad to lose her new friend, but an unexpected treasure gives her a special way to stay in touch.
