We are very excited to announce Mockingbird’s first children’s book, The Very Persistent Pirate, a swashbuckling tale of good news for sinners and saints ages 3-8.
When most children are drifting to sleep,
one kid and his monkey are drifting at sea.
One day, they spy a treasure
that is not theirs…
Over the course of 34 beautifully illustrated pages, The Very Persistent Pirate winds its way across a rollicking sea and onto a mysterious island in hot pursuit of stolen booty. Playing with all of our favorite themes—law, gospel [marauding] and, of course, the stubbornness of grace—The Very Persistent Pirate will capture the imaginations of children and adults alike.
