The Rescue Party: '...it's good for reading aloud to under-fives, and later the six-pluses will still want to read it themselves.' The Independent on Sunday After the Storm: '...look no further for the best present for any child from two to six.' Susan Hill, The Sunday Times Percy's Bumpy Ride: 'Imaginatively detailed illustrations and just the right amount of suspense.' Practical Parenting One Snowy Night 'A heartwarming bedtime tale...'

Nick Butterworth was born in North London in 1946 and grew up in a sweet shop in Essex. He now lives in Suffolk with his wife Annette and they have two grown-up children, Ben and Amanda. The inspiration for the Percy the Park Keeper books came from Nick's many walks through the local park with the family dog Jake.
