Walker Learning to Read: Percy the Pink

A lively and engaging Starters title for beginner readers from author-illustrator Colin West, with a friendly text and stylish two-colour illustrations. Percy the Pink is part of Walker Starters, the wonderfully fun and friendly series for beginner readers. There was once a king called Percy. He had a pink crown, a pink tunic, a pink cloak and big pink boots. One day he announces that all his subjects have to dress in pink, just like Percy. But that's not enough. EVERYTHING in his kingdom has to be pink! This is a charming story with a brilliant twist at the end, told through a range of writing styles, including hand-lettered speech and thought bubbles. The illustrations, which appear on every page, are lively and stylish, and play an active part in helping children understand the text.
