Meet LONG JOHN McRON, SHIP' S COOK . . . and the most unusual babysitter you' ve ever seen. Long John has a whole crew of wild pirates in tow, and - for one boy and his sister - he' s about to transform a perfectly ordinary evening into a riotous adventure beneath a pirate moon. It' s time to make some PIRATE STEW. Pirate Stew! Pirate Stew!Pirate Stew for me and you!Pirate Stew, Pirate StewEat it and you won' t be blueYou can be a pirate too!Marvellously silly and gloriously entertaining, this tale of pirates, flying ships, doughnut feasts and some rather magical stew is perfect for all pirates, both young and old. With a deliciously rhyming text from master storyteller Neil Gaiman, and spellbinding illustrations by the supremely talented Chris Riddell, three-times-winner of the Kate Greenaway Medal, this is the picture book of the year! Joyful, quirky and action-packed, it makes a spectacular and magical gift.
Neil Gaiman is the nearest thing children' s books have to a rock star: if you enjoy fantasy, he is irresistible. * The Times *
Neil Gaiman has written highly acclaimed books for both children and adults and is the first author to have won both the Carnegie and Newbery Medals for the same work - The Graveyard Book.

He has also written two episodes of Doctor Who and appeared in The Simpsons as himself. Chris Riddell is a much-loved illustrator and acclaimed political cartoonist. He has won the Costa Children' s Book Award, the Nestle Gold Award, and is the only artist to have won the Kate Greenaway Medal three times, most recently for his illustrations in The Sleeper and the Spindle. He was Waterstones Children' s Laureate from 2015 to 2017 and has illustrated the work of many celebrated children' s authors, including five Neil Gaiman titles and J. K. Rowling' s The Tales of Beedle the Bard. He is the author of the bestselling Goth Girl and Ottoline series and co-creator of The Edge Chronicles.
