- Reading
- Read together if the cave or creature-filled jungle might feel tense; pause to check how the scenes are landing, while keeping the book’s comic adventure tone in view.
- Themes
- Comic adventure and danger: Blunderbeard describes a dangerous treasure hunt in comic, exasperated terms, including insisting that a possibly haunted cave is not scary. Blunderbeard’s exaggerated complaints, including his repeated insistence that the cave is not scary, give the peril a comic edge.
- Worth knowing
- The adventure includes pirate-eating creatures, a dark cave Blunderbeard thinks may be haunted, and characters getting lost while seeking the gold.
