Percie's Adventures is an Australian children's picture book series featuring Percie! Percie is a bold, big-hearted red 4x4 who loves exploring the great outdoors.
Each book is set in a real Aussie location and teaches kids about relevant tips, tricks and things to keep in mind when visiting.
Book 1 is set at the real Glasshouse Mountains 4x4 tracks in South East Queensland. The book is written in rhyme and carries an important message about picking up all the rubbish you find when you’re out on the tracks to help the native animals that live there.
-
He sure is! Percie is based on my very own project car, a 1996 Nissan GQ Patrol that I bought all the way back in 2021 with my best friend from primary school.
-
Percie Adventure’s can be enjoyed by any age! But, I’ve included an age recommendation on each book just to make sure you know everything you need to know.
-
Not at all! While the book was inspired by a love of 4x4 adventures, each book’s core messages can apply with any family who loves spending time outdoors.
The stories are about adventure, responsibility, and caring for the world around us.
-
They’re for both! The books are designed to be entertaining for little explorers, with a loveable main character and beautiful illustrations, while also teaching them about environmental responsibility, what to pack for a 4x4 adventure, and the importance of caring for Australia's native wildlife and outdoor spaces.
-
Percie's Adventures is planned as a series of books set in many many real Australian locations. Think of it like Percie is going on “The Big Lap” around Australia and you’re joining his convoy!
Book 2 (that’s already written) takes Percie to K'Gari (Fraser Island) and Book 3 to the Simpson Desert.
