Meet Grislygrin, the pirate who's so fearsome, he even scares himself when he looks in the mirror!

All the boat's crew are afraid of Grislygrin, the fearsome pirate. When they hear the knock, knock, knock of his wooden leg they run to hide. But, what would happen if one day someone changed the wooden leg for a rubber duck? Hilarious consequences await the once terrified crew in this beautifully illustrated book!

'A short and sweet story about sharing and friendship. I thought the illustrations were so fun and the writing succinct and effective. I really smiled at the last page because it was so delightful.' Kirkus Review
