Summary: Fredbeard and Little Jim are kicked out of pirate school. They find shivering their timbers a bit of a bore, hold treasure maps upside down and they always get seasick. When a crate washes up on shore filled with some very un-piratey sugar and yarn they decide to change careers. Fredbeard and Little Jim hone their very unexpected talents of knitting sweaters and making jam.

very top of the sand.
