Editing text in Pages on iPad using Apple Pencil

I have been trying to find a solution for editing text in Pages document on iPad using an Apple pencil without success.

At present when I open an existing Pages document with a view to editing the text, as soon as I click the screen with the pencil I am prompted to insert and annotation or drawing. As in most cases I wish to do neither, can someone tell me how to edit the text either with or without using an Apple pencil.
