Picking up three weeks after book one, it's Jack and his gang's first overnight stay at Moray Middle but this overnight adventure turns out to be more than they bargained for when it's interrupted by an enemy from the past, a missing boy and a mysterious treasure that could change the face of piracy forever!
.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic adventure book!
Reviewed in the United States on May 7, 2020 - This Jack Ferrington sequel is even better than the first book. Jack and his friends might be budding pirates, but other than that they're just like any other middle school kids. They have the occasional squabble, but their loyalty is what gets them through even the most dangerous parts of their adventure, which starts out as a search for a missing classmate and morphs into a treasure hunt complete with a mysterious map and sinister pirates out to get them. This book will entertain kids and adults alike. Loved it.

A Pirate without honor? An enemy of Blackbeard? A guy who just loves hourglasses? What do you think his flag means?

Volcanic consequences

​The writer's process: Almost finished with the second book but chapter 32 and 33 were as hard of a tale to bring together as the maze the characters have to navigate inside the volcano. I definitely had to journey with them, mapping out the inside as I wrote, Jack Ferrington and Blackbeard's lost treasure.

Review - 4th Grade Teacher

 I read "Jack Ferrington and the School for Swabbies" to my Fourth grade class at Bear Creek Elementary in Monument, Colorado. I have taught for 37 years and I was amazed at how the students could not wait for read-a-loud time everyday to see what happened in the adventures of the students at Moray Middle School. My students loved the fact that the pirate students in 6th grade had First grade buddies, just like we do! Many of them could relate with Jack and his troubles with his rambunctious  buddy. The students LOVED  the book (and so did I); we are anxiously awaiting the release of book 2.

Reviewed By Ann Neville for Readers’ Favorite
Jack Ferrington and the School For Swabbies by Clint Perry is the place to go if you want to learn to be a pirate. Jack has had his fill of elementary school and is ready to move on to Moray Middle, a Pirate School. Here he hopes his dreams of cannons, parlay, treasure hunting, sword fights and more will become reality. And they do - though in completely unexpected ways that test Jack's leadership skills and the loyalty of his mates, Finn, Tom and Macy. The instructors are real pirates with strict rules. Unfortunately, because Jack seems to have an uncanny ability to find danger around every corner, he needs to find ways for him and his mates to circumvent these rules. But will these same mates stand with him when they have to face the consequences of his actions?

Following Jack through his first day at the School For Swabbies leads the reader on a wonderful adventure full of both suspense and humor. I thoroughly enjoyed the way in which the author, Clint Perry, uses authentic pirate terms throughout the dialogue, and connects everyday actions to pirate vernacular - very cleverly done. The setting of the school on a real pirate ship adds another dimension to an already intriguing story. Another bonus is the website associated with Jack Ferrington and the School For Swabbies, where the reader can enroll for classes, choose a favorite area of study, and get a personalized Certificate of Enrollment! Arrgh, I recommend Jack Ferrington and the School For Swabbies wholeheartedly.
