behavior and being considerate of others are important for<br />
a harmonious life with others.<br />
CONTENT<br />
Pete is actually a perfectly normal boy. But Pete is also a<br />
pirate, or at least he acts like one - singing wild sailors'<br />
songs, being loud, cutting in line, and his imaginary band of<br />
pirates gives him a loud round of applause every time. Pete's<br />
parents are not amused by this. But there is still Grandpa,<br />
who used to be a pirate too, who even understands Pete<br />
when he talks with his mouth full. Pete wishes he had<br />
pirates for parents...<br />
Pete's wish is granted, because the next day his parents are<br />
completely transformed: loud, inconsiderate and only<br />
concerned with themselves. Pete soon notices how<br />
unpleasant it is to live with self-centered pirates who only<br />
think of their own fun. So the family comes up with a Pirate<br />
Day, when everyone can be as wild as they want, because<br />
everyone is in on the fun. Pete's imaginary band of pirates<br />
finds the idea stupid, and grudgingly moves on.<br />
