We write children's stories

Martinborough Stories was established in 2013 to publish illustrated children's books written and illustrated by father and son team, Dale and Phillip Percy. Phillip writes the stories and his father Dale provides the brilliant illustrations. They have produced three books together - The Old White Truck, Mr Phelps' Fish Truck and Banana Fingers and Fairy Knees.

What some of our readers have said

​This is an absolutely delightful book - it is simple but engaging with beautiful illustrations sure to capture the hearts and imaginations of toddlers. Sandra

I really enjoyed this book! Any book with rhyming is a winner for me, so song like! The story is a nice every day life experience, not some far-fetched fantasy, and the illustrations are so Kiwiana! Kendra

​A delightful read, fantastic to read aloud. My children loved it! It's always a pleasure to find independent authors and illustrators. Joanne
