The Pirate Who Loved Flip Flops

Mackenzie, a young free-spirited girl,

sets out on an adventure to a special

pirate gathering where she encounters

unruly pirates set in their old pirate ways.

Through bravery and can-do-it-ness Mackenzie,

as Black Mack the flip flop loving

pirate, takes on a leadership role to teach

the pirates that embracing differences and

including others is the new code of pirate

kindness. In her colorfully creative debut Dana spotlights

the concepts of anti-bullying and

diversity. She reimagines these tough topics in a simple

way to motivate young readers to stand up

for what they believe and build relationships

to effect change in their communities, and

the world. Read it twice, read it thrice and ask yourself

what are the special treasures that make

your heart sing?

It's a swashbuckling tale for readers of all

ages and pirates too!
