Percy again

I have just taken my five years old daughter to bed, but before she could lay down to sleep she had to "walk" with her index finger through the maze in Percy's park, the secret path.We both love this book. The story is about the gardener Percy and all his animal friends. Percy and his friends are living a happy life in the park, the home of all his friends. They are joking together and playing each other tricks, always with a happy ending.In this book Percy is cutting the trees in the maze, the secret path, and the animals are hiding in the middle to give him a surprice when he comes. The squirrel is not with the others though, but is busy helping Percy, though both Percy and the squirrel are both in their own thoughts. Persy is not listening when the squirrel talks, though he answers him alright, and the squirrel is not listening when Percy explains something - and they all have to pay for that in the end. Any child will love this, and be remined of all similar episodes on their own life :-) A great way to start a conversation between mother or father and child :-)The book had wonderful, funny drawings, and the very best is the huge maze in the end, where you can fold out the paper and find your way through the maze.Read the book with your child, and you will both have a nice storybook time.Britt Arnhild Lindland
