Funnybones: Skeleton Crew
Allan Ahlberg
Skeleton Crew is one of the titles in Allan Ahlberg's iconic children's picture book series about skeletons, Funnybones. Despite being set in a dark dark house, this brightly coloured book is perfect for early readers! ""Zzz!"" The three skeletons enjoy a holiday on-board their little boat. But one night - ""Yo-ho-ho"" - the pirates come and put them out to sea on a tiny raft, launching them on an oceanful of new adventures. 'By far our best writer for the young' - Daily Telegraph Allan Ahlberg has published over 100 children's books and with his late wife Janet, created many award-winning children's picture books, including Peepo!, Each Peach Pear Plum and the Kate Greenaway Medal winning The Jolly Postman. Other titles in the Funnybones series include Funnybones, The Ghost Train, The Black Cat, The Pet Shop, Bumps in the Night, Dinosaur Dreams, Mystery Tour, Give the Dog a Bone and A Brilliant Bone Rattling Collection, all of which are available from Puffin.

The skeletons had the best holiday ever.

I thought this book was EXTREMELY funny because the pirates stole the boat from the skeletons. My favourite character was the dog skeleton because it caught a catfish, which was funny. I would recommend this book to children who like pirates because pirates climb aboard the dark dark boat.

This book is fiction and is about their boating trip. It was funny and I’m glad they got home at the end

My favourite bit is when the pirate said Yo-ho-ho. My favourite character is dog skeleton.

I didn't really like it but I did like that King Kong is chasing the skeletons to play but they think he is trying to eat them.
