Percy Pike is hungry, very hungry, but his fishing trip runs into trouble. First his boat sinks… then he’s captured by pirates. Can Percy escape before he’s forced to walk the plank? Percy and the Pirates is in the Usborne First Reading series, written especially for children who are learning to read, and developed in consultation with Alison Kelly, Senior Lecturer in Education and reading specialist at Roehampton University. With delightful illustrations, these books combine great stories with simple text to excite and inspire any beginner reader.
