Bert and the Burglar is part of Walker Starters, the wonderfully fun and friendly series for beginner readers. Police Constable Bert likes skipping, fluffy kittens and writing poems.

This is a charming and uplifting story told through a range of writing styles, including hand-lettered speech bubbles, postcards and posters. The illustrations, which appear on every page, are lively and stylish, and play an active part in helping children understand the text.
