Summary: A Pirate Looks at 4
Comment: Okay, so I read this book as an adult, but it didn't take long for some of the magic of childhood to come creeping back to me through the pages. This is a children's story the way they used to make 'em, full of whimsy, magic, and good deeds. Follow the Jolly Mon on a delightful yet purposeful journey, spreading happiness as he goes. The illustrations are beautiful and capture the vivid colors of the Carribbean and a child's imagination. This is a great book for kids of all ages. Just be prepared to smile, because once the Jolly Mon has passed your way, it'll be impossible not to.

Summary: BEAUTIFUL
Comment: Both Jimmy Buffett's story and the illustrations are so beautiful. This story of the jolly mon, and his adventures(such as maybe Buffett himself may have or has had already) in the sea is a real treat.
While it is marketed for children, as a Parrotthead myself, I think all Buffett fan's could enjoy this. He has added the lyrics to his song, Jolly Mon, in the back of the book as well.
Like all other stories, this has it's good guys and bad, and conflict. I think that is the way Jimmy Buffett writes, which is so honest and down to earth. This is as good as any song he's written, maybe even better. I was so moved by the ending, I cried.
I am not going to give anything away, but this story has a great message.
I think this is a great addition to the library of books I am building for my children.
My son is only 1 year old, and while he doesn't really pay attention nor understand what I am saying. He was entranced by the illustration.
The artist, Lambert Davis, did a wonderful job of capturing the characters and the places that Jolly Mon visits.
This is definitely worth buying!

Summary: Great book
Comment: As an elementary school music teacher, I have used this book with a variety of age groups. It's a great book, and I use it with my fourth graders every year. The kids love it, but buying the CD with the song on it (Parakeet Album: Song of Jimmy Buffett) is a must!
