Why read it?
1 author picked Anton B. Stanton and the Pirats as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
A Tom Thumb-type fable, and the first story about the miniature that I remember being enthralled by. Anton B. Stanton sails a castle moat like it’s a sea, and gets captured by Pirats (I didn’t get the lame pun until I was a grown-up and buying the book for my own son).

From Sam's list on miniature stories about the miniature.
