We really liked the "You Wouldn't Want To Be..." series so we bought this book (and the Columbus one). Although the information in here is very interesting, I don't think it is appropriate for smaller kids as there are a number of pictures of pirates being hung or corpses in crow's cages, and the like. Remember, all the information in here is real life - not just cutesy stories - so if your child is easily freightened by graphic (although comic-style) pictures, try something else.

This book was very interesting. It showed what might happen to you if you were captured by Pirates. I thought it was very realistic, and it was so exciting you didn't know you were really learning.
