Well, this is the perfect book to reach for if anyone needs a way to refresh their mind, their day or week!
Switch off everything for a moment & enjoy this great story with gorgeous illustrations.
Have you ever seen a penguin wearing pyjamas OR riding a bicycle? You can see both in this super-fun story.
Percy has a post office BUT he also has a problem.
An unusual problem. A BIG problem.
He has to figure out a way to make it work.
My interest in picture books spans many years & from the first moment I've LOVED the special stories, gorgeous illustrations & especially endpapers.
This is why the examples from Genevieve Aspinall in this book are SO special!
When you really look at illustrations you start to realise just how much time, creativity & skill goes into them. They're also KEY to attract a child's attention.
I've met a few author-illustrators at workshops in London & when I see so many extra elements in books I just admire them so much.
Imagination & creativity are factors in all types of publication but a lot of picture books seem to deliver every extra bonus possible.
Percy has an ambitious goal in mind & has to overcome some challenges to see if he can make it happen.
We see how his positivity & personal determination can help things along the way.
Will all the penguins, polar bears & creatures be able to keep in touch with each other?
You'll have to read this beautifully produced book to find out!
Percy the Post-Penguin would be such a great addition to youngsters' home bookshelves everywhere, any library or school story time & would also make a great present any time of year!
What's your dream? With some help from others, maybe it can come true!
Never give up!
This book is šÆ% recommended!
