Children's Books, by Peter Allerton

Having worked with so many of children of all ages and reading levels, I'd like to think I know what makes them 'tick'. I always try to write humorous stories that anyone can enjoy, including parents and teachers.

My tales can make children laugh and hopefully think a bit, too. I don’t like to rely on illustrations as I believe the main ingredient of any reading experience is the imagination (if children want pictures in my books, they are invited to draw something for themselves based on what they have read...).

These funny chapter books are for Primary School children of all ages to enjoy, including reluctant readers. Each story or poem also features a set of 'follow-up questions' at the end.

The books highlighted on this page increase in reading age level all the way from the first to the last (all have been updated for their final edition 2023).

Thank you for giving them a try and I sincerely hope you enjoy reading them as much as I enjoyed writing them!
