What a cute story! A little boy is adopted by a ship of dead pirate and ends up making them feel more alive than ever before. I wish it was longer, but I guess it's more aimed at children.

Lovely graphic novel. I really enjoyed the illustration style, and the humor. The story line seemed not fully developed and the ending leaves something to be desired. But lovely book over all.

Fairly scary pictures and a pretty inconclusive ending make me wonder if this should really be in the children's section at my library, but I (an adult) quite enjoyed it, although I was a bit frustrated by the ending, which isn't at all a conclusion, it just ends.

Too slight to be meant for adults, (far) too advanced in themes and language to be meant for children, I'm not quite sure who this book was intended for. The art is gorgeous and the story and characters have promise, but it reads like a selection of highlights from a much longer work. Too much ground to cover in too few pages. Narratively, it's confusing and ultimately unsatisfying.

I was greatly disappointed by this book. David B. was the reason I got back in to graphic novels and comics. I love the premise of this book and the art is simply whimsical and fun. The book lays down the groundwork for a great story arc and then it simply ends. There is no real form of resolution and the reader is left wanting more and asking why they embarked on this journey in the first place.
