Min oldefars historier - Piratskibet

Tone Mygind Rostbøll, 2016

Theodor watches Great Grandad hoisting the Norwegian flag on the flagpole and thinks it would be more fun to hoist a pirate flag. Great Grandad recounts his ‘Fatso tale’ about how he and Fatso once built a real pirate ship out of boards and an old ladder on his parent’s front lawn because they weren’t allowed to go sailing on the seven seas – and how they hoisted his dad’s handkerchief up the ship’s mast to make it look like a pirate flag. Using an old spinning wheel as the rudder and one of Great Granddad’s shirts as a pirate flag, Theodor builds an almost identical pirate ship to the one in the story on the front lawn.
