Pirate Mom

Pirate Mom

The Hypno-Trance “ Arrr! ” said Pete. He swished his pirate sword. He jumped on his pirate bed. “ Come downstairs, Pirate Pete, ” called his mom. Pete told Teddy to guard the loot.

Pete ran downstairs. “ Will you play pirates with me?” he asked. Pete's mom said no. Pete's mom never wanted to play pirates. She did not like pirates. She said pirates were not polite. But she had a nice surprise.

“ Wow! ” Pete said. “ Tickets to see the Amazing Marco today! ”

Pete and his mom went to the show. The lights dimmed. The crowd got quiet. " Ladies and gentlemen--the Amazing Marco! ” boomed a voice from behind them.
