What is Lunch on a pirate ship about?

Jack is fed up with his boring lunch and dreams of eating aboard a pirate ship instead. Soon, his imagination carries him across the sea, through mysterious caves and into a troll’s lair. But pirate food is not quite as delicious as he expected: rotten fish stew is enough to make anyone shudder! After his swashbuckling adventure, Jack discovers that Mum’s cooking may be tastier than he thought. A lively rhyming story about imagination, adventure and trying new food.
