Charlie Small is twelve years old when he falls through a gap in space and time and ends up in a series of extraordinary adventures which he records in a diary format. Packed full of fun illustrations, maps, clever inventions and top tips for survival, Charlie's second adventure takes him onto a pirate ship as cabin boy for some fearsome and ferocious pirates... will they make him walk the plank? Or will their skeleton enemy be the worst of them all? No adventure is too big for Charlie Small! And how will he ever get home?
Nick Ward was born in the late Jurassic period, and since then has written over sixty books for children, from picture books to young fiction. His book Don't Eat The Teacher has sold over a million copies and his alter-ego Charlie Small has written twelve volumes of unbelievable but completely true adventurous memoirs.
Brought up living above the family shop in a quiet market town, all Nick Ward ever wanted to do was write and illustrate books, and by hook and by crook, that's exactly what he has ended up doing. He has worked in design studios and converted school buildings, but now works from a little wooden studio (shed) at the bottom of his leafy garden. It's all rather lovely.
