Arr-gust is National Pirate Month!

Shiver me timbers! We be settin' sail on National Pirate Month! Jenn of our library crew put togther a display in the children's area full of all kinds of treasures. There are even coloring sheets, pirate hats, and treasure maps, so be sure to ask the captain of the circulation desk for one before they're all plundered!

Down below ye will find stories to get you in the mood to set sail. These tales for lads and lassies will help ye get yer sea legs and make sure all is shipshape. Savvy?
