The Planktown Pirates are back! This time they want to show off their musical talents in a local talent competition. However, they don’t have much musical talent, and they don’t realise that they are up against their arch enemies the Gruseome Crew, who are bound to cause trouble!
Race Ahead with Reading is the perfect introduction to reading chapters with brand new page turning reads in five short bite size chapters, to encourage children to take the driving seat with their reading.

Charlotte says she doesn’t come from anywhere because she moved around a lot when she was growing up. She always wanted to be a writer and worked as a bookseller before training to teach English as a Foreign Language. This took her to the Czech Republic and Ukraine, before she headed to Zanzibar to teach English to student nurses. On her return to the UK, Charlotte moved to Oxford where she started working in publishing before going freelance and writing children’s non-fiction. She now writes picture books and young fiction, both with her husband Adam, and on her own.
Born in 1971 Rupert has accumulated a great deal of experience in children’s book illustration, producing work for numerous publishers around the world. A passionate traveler who has visited many countries he now lives and works between England and Italy.
