Summary
  • "Sir Francis Drake, a murderous pirate working for the Queen of England in the 16th century, was the second person in the world known to sail around the globe. On a quest to steal treasures, hunt for spices, and annoy the King of Spain as much as possible, Francis and his crew aboard the Golden Hind might not have been the first, but they were certainly the wackiest. Follow his travels full of perils, pongs, and penguins, and learn a little history along the way."--
  • Features a fun way to learn about the life and accomplishments of the English seaman and explorer who was knighted by Queen Elizabeth I for helping to make England a world power by circumnavigating the globe and raiding Spanish ships
