Gruesome but fun by Slatternly Jones (Rhode Island)  5 Stars
October 05, 2007
My 8 year old likes facts and comicbook style illustrations, and whales...so this type of book is just for him.
But beware, this book describes the gruesome voyage of the Essex, which featured cannibalism...a sea captain eating his young cousin. I was nervous that my child, who is the sensitive type, would get nightmares from this book, but somehow the lighthearted illustrations take away some of the sting. In fact, he often pulls out this book to read at bedtime!
Still, be forewarned, these books are not for the squeamish. And I certainly wouldn't read them to the 4-6 set. I'd say the correct age range is something like 8-11.
