Everyone's favourite, Percy the Park Keeper is now on our screens and this new title is based on a TV episode whilst still using Nick Butterworth's exquisite artwork. When Percy catches a cold he is reluctant to go to bed -- there is so much to be done. Owl, however insists and sets to work, with the help of the other animals, to do all Percy's jobs for him. But the Owl doesn't have a very good memory and somehow everything seems to get a little muddled up! AGE 3-7
