Description

When wild animals stray into the park and get into difficulties, Hassan and his mum are there to help in two heartwarming tales from animal-story maestro Helen Peters.

Dapple the fawn gets carried away exploring the park near the woods where he lives with his mother, Fern. But when Fern comes to find him, she gets tangled in a wire. Can Dapple find someone to help set her free?

Olive the otter loves playing in the river near her home. But when she disobeys her mother and strays out after a rainstorm, Olive gets washed far downstream and lands on the bank in a city park. How will she ever find her way home?

Luckily for Dapple and Olive, Hassan and his mum, a wildlife ranger, live close to the park and can help both little animals back to safety.

"Written by animal-maestro Helen Peters, who was brought up on a farm in Sussex, and beautifully illustrated by Isobel Lundie, these enchanting adventures are ideal for new chapter book readers and animal lovers." – Lancashire Evening Post

"Do you live anywhere near a park, a common or open countryside? If the answer to that question is yes, have you ever spent any time thinking about what the wildlife might be up to during the night as you sleep? If you haven’t, then Helen Peters’ new book, Midnight Adventures in Primrose Park might make you think a bit more about this amazing nocturnal world." — Letterpress Project
