Pearlie in the Park : Book 1

A very special anniversary edition!

Pearlie looks after Jubilee Park and it keeps her very busy.

But one day she wakes up to find everything topsy-turvy. Hurly-burly! What can have gone wrong? It's up to Pearlie to find out . . .

A delightfully funny urban fairytale, Pearlie In The Park is perfect for new and emerging readers.
