“This book is precious!” –Paula Deen, Celebrity Chef, Author: Christmas With Paula Deen ...

Shiver me timbers and a Yo ho, ho, ho! There's a little something you might not know about Ol' Saint Nick, so best ye move over Red Beard, Black Beard, and Blue Beard 'cause there's a pirate known as Ol' White Beard and when it comes to getting pirates their holiday loot n' booty, aboard the sloop the "Yuletide" he sails the seven seas with a fantastic unleashed team of endangered beluga white whales, that, upon ocean waves, are a miraculous sight to behold!

Incensed by the fragile state and precipitous decline of a struggling pod of three-hundred critically endangered Alaskan Cook Inlet Beluga whales, Sammie Mays wrote under the nom de plume Mayor Gonzo Mays the popular holiday family storybook 'PIRATE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS' in an effort to draw attention to the plight of the waning white whales.

An 8 x 10 fully illustrated, 46-page collectible work of art, 'PIRATE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS' (brilliantly illustrated by Ron Thomas) offers a meaningful, yet playful, pirate experience for the entire family and adds a buccaneering twist to the old holiday classic that nary a reader won't enjoy reading—and reciting!

So go ahead, stow away, mates, there's merry to make!
