Produktbeschreibung
Perry & Perky's Fun-Filled Adventures contains ten delightful five-minute stories about Perry, a resourceful pygmy-possum, and Perky, an adventurous quokka. It is also available as two separate books in paperback, hardback, and eBook: Nobody's Friend (But that's not where it ends!) and Perry and Perky-the Adventures Continue. All stories are positive, wholesome and educative. They are primarily designed to be read to children up to seven years of age but older children who are good readers may enjoy reading them on their own. The 24 beautiful illustrations in the book are from watercolour paintings by acclaimed Australian artist, Emma Stuart. They include part-page, full page and double-page spreads. The book is 8 inches x 10 inches (20.3cm x 25.4cm). It has 66 pages and is available in paperback, hardback and eBook (.mobi). The paperback and hardback are perfect bound (glued spine) and printed with Standard Colour. Synopsis: Perry the pygmy-possum wakes up after several weeks-which he calls his torpor-time-to find that the land where he lives has been cleared. He's all alone and he sets out to find a friend. He meets Perky, an adventurous quokka, and together they travel anywhere and everywhere by train, aeroplane, brumby, truck, motorbike, ship and spaceship, enjoying life and making a difference whenever and wherever they can.
Autorenporträt
The Author is a former school teacher with a Master of Education degree who currently tutors in Maths and English and writes stories for children's picture books. In addition to the ongoing Perry and Perky series for younger children, she has written a full-length fairy tale for older children titled Magic? Who Needs It! - a modern fairy tale. The Author intends to tutor for many years yet because she is passionate about helping children to improve their school work and to improve their attitude towards it and themselves. Prior to writing children's stories, most of the writing the Author had done was related to her studies and work as a teacher. She did enter two caption writing competitions and won both, and while this isn't story writing, it is evidence that she can be clear, concise and humorous. She writes not just to entertain, but to subtly teach wise life lessons that are relevant no matter what age the reader is. All stories are positive, wholesome and educative.
