点评:Parkgate is a wonderful, hidden gem of a village tucked away on the Wirral... and NOW, there's an incredible Children's Book you can take around with you and follow the adventure by spotting the locations!
Written by a local Author & Illustrator who lived in Parkgate a couple of years ago, this book is a MUST if you're visiting Parkgate with kids!
Every page is set in a different part of Parkgate and nearby town of Neston - with a couple of scenes set around the iconic docks of Liverpool and New Brighton.
The book tells a TRUE STORY about what happened in Parkgate a couple of years ago, when the Chip Shop's TOP SECRET Monster Mushy Peas Machine went out of control and Parkgate was swamped with Mushy Peas - you could even see it from space!
With characters including The Queen (then) Prince Charles, the UK Prime Minister "Norris Wantsum", a smattering of real life local people and dozens of local places and artefacts to spot, buying this book and taking the kids for a wonder around Parkgate makes for a wonderful day out for all the family!
To find the book, just Google "Squiggly Pete"!
Enjoy a great day out!!!
