The detective dogs are back for a swashbuckling pirate adventure!

Captain Sharpwhiskers and his criminal crew have stolen Captain Chucklebeard’s treasure! Can Shifty and Sam catch those BAD pirates and bring back the loot? Find out in this hilarious, rhyming picture book adventure!

Cardiff Children’s Literature Festival is held annually and aimed predominantly at primary school children aged 3-11. Since 2013, the festival’s goal has been to encourage a lifelong love of reading in young people, with an exciting ensemble of literary events in both English and Welsh, hosted by incredible guest authors and illustrators.

Each spring for a whole weekend, some of Cardiff city centre’s most iconic venues are taken over by a packed programme, including storytelling and book reading, writing and drawing workshops, craft activities, quizzes and games, and even the occasional appearance of a character or two!
