Nathan is feeling nervous about the first day of school and wonders what it will be like stepping into something completely new. That night, Peanut Butter Jim takes him back aboard the Wooden Parrot for a brand new pirate adventure. But this time, their old friend Jarret the Ferret has been promoted to captain and is about to lead his very first voyage.
When they arrive, Jarret reveals a mysterious treasure map leading to a place no one aboard the Wooden Parrot has ever seen before. With a new captain at the helm and an unknown adventure ahead, the crew sets sail to find out where the map will lead them.
In this stories for kids podcast episode, Nathan and PB Jim join Jarret as he learns what it means to be a captain. When a powerful storm rolls in, Jarret faces one tough decision after another as the Wooden Parrot battles crashing waves, fierce winds, and a narrow passage leading to a mysterious island. Together, the crew climbs towering cliffs, follows the ancient map, and discovers that some of the greatest treasures are waiting just beyond our biggest challenges.
As Nathan watches Jarret trust himself through every twist and turn, he begins to feel a little more ready for his own first day of school. Nathan discovers that being brave is not about having all the answers. Sometimes it is simply about taking the next step, even when you do not know exactly what lies ahead.
