Gentle music to set the nature theme
Hello! My name’s Daniel, what’s your name? I can’t wait to tell you all about the pictures in this fun counting book. It’s called ‘123 With Percy the Park Keeper’ by Nick Butterworth. Percy and his animal friends are going on an adventure — and you’re coming along too! The picture on the book cover is a very happy scene - it shows three, grey rabbits holding hands and hopping into the air! To the left, a cheerful man with a big smile and rosy cheeks is watching the rabbits. That’s Percy the Park Keeper and we’re going to meet him in a moment. In the bottom right-hand corner is a brown mouse and a spiky hedgehog who are smiling at the jolly rabbits.
