Pedro the Pirate Learning to Trust a New Crew

Hoist a sail? Do it solo! Explore the high seas? Who needs a crew? Not Pedro. This foster kid (and don't ye be forgettin' pirate captain) can do everything all by himself. He doesn't need his new foster family. But what's a captain to do when the seas get rough and the treasures are trapped? Perhaps Pedro will discover trusting a new crew might just not be that bad after all.

Combine humor and picture books. Stir in a middle school library. Add in a pinch of nonfiction writing, two crazy dogs, and seven kids… and voila! You have author, Ciara O’ Neal. This busy southern mama lives in her library, herds squirrels with mini lassos, and plots world domination with a donut in each hand. My name is Marí a Antonella Fant, I was born, and currently live in Argentina. I’ m a Visual Designer, a Children’ s Books Illustrator, and a Concept Artist. I have studied Graphic Design and Illustration. Since very young age, I have been a self-driven person. As I grew up my illustrations adopted a very similar personality as mine, childish, restless and curious, taking inspiration from TV cartoons and children books that I used to read when I was a toddler. I love to create characters and stories to go along with them, and really enjoy thinking as a child, drawing like them, and for them.
