New York, NY, March 05, 2026 --(PR.com)-- Christopher David James, a veterinary surgical and dental technician for the past fifteen-plus years, has completed his new book, “A Pirate’s Life for Me A Pirate’s Life Indeed!”: a riveting tale of a young boy who discovers the thrills and dangers of a life aboard the high seas.
Christopher writes, “‘A Pirate’s Life for Me: A Pirate’s Life Indeed’ is about a nine-year-old boy who wants nothing more than to be a pirate! That nine-year-old boy’s name is Thomas Patch! If ye thinks ye has the moxie, then tag along with Thomas Patch on his thrilling, heart-pounding, adventurous journey in search of Blackbeard’s lost treasure of gold! In the story, Thomas Patch comes face-to-face with Scar! The dirtiest, rotten, cutthroat pirate to have ever sailed the high sea! Scar captains a crew of highly dysfunctional pirates! They are far from being dirty or rotten to say the least! Accompanying Thomas Patch on his amazing journey in search of Blackbeard’s lost treasure of gold are two funny, dysfunctional pirates from Scar’s crew known as Stix and Tubby; a talking sea turtle named Simon who just loves to surf and drink Pirate Pop Cola and speaks seven languages; Wellington, Simon’s trusted guardian; and a crotchety and cranky old crow named Robear who wears pajamas and loves to watch Steinfeld! I have come to really love all these characters over the last twenty-seven years! I hope as you read along, you will come to love them too! Enjoy the adventure and happy reading!”
