Dinner with a Pirate (L9-11) F

When Pedro the fisherman catches a big swordfish, he decides to share his meal with a man in the local prison – a captured pirate. But when Pedro himself is later captured by a pirate gang, he finds his generosity hasn’t been forgotten. This traditional tale is written by Saviour Pirotta and wonderfully illustrated by Shahab Shamshirsaz.
