How to Become a Pirate
Pato Mena / Mathias Sielfeld
To become a good pirate, you don’t have to raid ships, plunder ports, or live through life-and-death situations – at least not always. All you need is a hunger for adventure, a first-class crew, and the secrets of sailing.
Get on board your pirate ship, choose your pirate look, design your ship’s flag, and learn how to read a map with this manual. And get ready to live an adventure like a real pirate!

As a writer and illustrator of children’s literature and comics, he already has 17 titles between collaborations and integral works, between Spain and Chile. He has been recognized by numerous international awards such as the selection of the Junior Library Guild or the Best Picture Book in the International Latino Awards.
