Silly Willy Winston and his friend Aiden live in the desert. They love to explore but most of all they dream of adventure not on dry ground. Silly Willy Winston throws Aiden a bandanna and wooden sword. He readies his nose and his snout. He puts on his pirate's hat and grabs his telescope. In an instant he becomes Pirate Snout. On this journey they discover a ship buried in the Mojave Desert, a Pyramid under the sea and so much more. Young readers 7 to 8

A teacher, mom and children's and young adult book reviewer and blogger wrote:

Ahoy Matey! Pirates, pirate-loving children, and young at heart are going to be trilled to set out on a voyage through the desert and seas looking for lost treasure. Donna Maguire does it again with the help of Silly Willy Winston, a basset hound who has ears for adventure. This book is packed with history, geography, and marine life lessons.
•Students could easily chart informational topics to further investigate. Using these topic students could create a “class fair” around the projects to share their new insight and knowledge with other students/teachers/parents.
•While reading the book students could practice their map skills by pinpointing the various locations Pirate Snout and Aiden venture to for lost treasure.
•Money and measurement is weaved throughout the story (size of marine animals, weight of ships, value of lost treasures, area of the base of a pyramid, depth of treasure, etc.)
•With the CCSS calling for more informational text reading this book is perfect for close reading lessons.

In addition to all the educational uses, this book is simply fun to read. The pirate glossary at the end will have everyone using pirate jargon
