Space Pirates and the Monster of Malswamp

By Scoular Anderson

With rickety walkways, weird and wonderful creatures and all sorts of different areas to explore, map reading has never been so much fun.

Pirate treasure hunters Captain Tosca, Needlespune, Dogzboddi and Coleslaw have returned but this time the treasure is guarded by the dreaded monster of the Malswomp caves who will think nothing of gobbling up the crew of the Sleepy Sheep for breakfast! There is only one way past the monster and a clue has been hidden on jigsaw pieces hidden all over the planet. The pirates must identify the correct docking pod, read a metro map, and navigate their way around the dark and dangerous sewers. But is that Silverina Slice and her band of Spaceway Men lurking around every turn?

  • Wonderful illustrations specially designed to teach children the skills of map-reading.
