Kris & The Pirates (The Adventures of Kris) by Art Blegen – Review by Tara Johnson Barnes
Kris & The Pirates: The Adventures of Kris by Art Blegen
Kris and the Pirates is book two in The Adventures of Kris series. It is a children’s chapter book geared towards children between the ages of ten to fourteen years of age. The book follows the adventures of a young girl named Kris as she becomes immersed into the stories she reads and shares the adventures alongside the characters in the book. Kris is not eager to attend a costume party with her family because she feels that dressing up in costumes is only acceptable at Halloween, not in March. To take her mind off the party she is reluctant to attend she decides to escape into the world of her book. The story takes her on an exciting adventure where she gets to sail the seas, go swimming, meet pirates, go on an island, and make friends with talking animals. Kris learns about friendship, overcoming fear, sailing, being brave, and how to overcome challenges. A fun and entertaining read.
