A pirates life for me............

or it would be if i were 8-12 yrs old and could fit into the woolworths Jack Sparrow dressing up outfit i bought for £3.00 when they were closing down, but sadly no. My nephew Kain on the other hand can fit into it quite nicely, the story behind these pics goes like this..................... Kain only wanted to wear the head dress of the outfit-not much of a photo opportunity so i convinced-bribed him to wera the whole oufit while i took some pics-i had to make him a book about being a pirate, he soon warmed up to having his pics taken and got into the swing of things and acted out a whole scene from pirates of the carribean!!!!!!!! well its been a long wait but i finished the book today!!!yippee!! i will deliver it to him in a while.
Each page has a statement about being a pirate............page 8 says " know how to shield your face............................................... you don't want to be on any wanted posters......................or recodnised on the way to school.




Page six says "know how to do the death stare.............................................then maybe they'll stop taking photos.




Page five says " know how to look innocent........................................................pirates don't have a good reputation.
















After i had taken the photos of my nephew and he was exhausted from his pirate antics he wanted to draw some pictures of pirates and maps to go into the book, so i made a pocket for them to go in on page two which says" know how to draw maps...................................you don't want to get lost.















This is the front cover, i hope he likes it.
