Captain Pugwash was first published in 1957. It was a comic strip, a TV animation and the story series developed into a further twenty four titles. Pugwash is conceited, stupid, podgy, unshaven and lovable. His crew are ''the laziest afloat'', his enemy, Cut-Throat Jake, is satisfyingly villainous and cabin-boy Tom can always be relied on to save the day. Many families will remember these as childhood favourites whether in print or on the screen.
This is the grand-daddy of all pirate stories for yong children. Every family should have a copy.
They should also, of course, possess Peter Pan and Wendy and I have found that [[Sir Charlie Stinky Socks: the The Pirate's Curse by Kristina Stephenson]] is a grandchild-pleaser.
