{"product_id":"9780702345692","title":"Nice Work for the Cat and the King (NE)","description":"\u003cp\u003e�      This wonderfully funny follow-up to Nick Sharratt's acclaimed      d�but novel,�The Cat and the King,      is a feast of fun and glorious illustration.         Alas and alack! The Royal Money Box is almost empty.         The king has to get a job - but what kind of job would be fit      for a king? Butcher? Baker? Candlestick Maker?      It takes many comical disasters, and a surprisingly helpful visit      from a dragon, before both cat and king find their perfect jobs.               Spectacular two-colour illustrations throughout            �      PRAISE FOR THE CAT AND THE KING:       \"A majestic treat\",�Sunday Times      Children's Book of the Week 2016      \"Nick Sharratt's debut novel is an entertaining mix of familiar      experience and fairy-tale fantasy underscored by a thread of      anarchic humour. This is a beautifully-presented storybook, in      which the fabulous illustrations are as integral as the text, and      will appeal to adults as well as independent readers.\" -      BookTrust      �      PRAISE FOR�NICE WORK FOR THE CAT AND THE KING      In this second book about the long-suffering, loyal cat and      the well-meaning but somewhat ineffectual King, there are plenty      of laughs and brilliant illustrative detail (the department store      is particularly lovely) from Nick Sharratt, whose recognisable      illustration is such a favourite with children.         A heavily illustrated short novel for early readers, it's      a perfect book for younger ones that want something a bit longer      than a picture book but still love silly humour and a great,      well-written concept. - BookTrust\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Bookmonger","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":55278250033486,"sku":"9780702345692","price":7.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0874\/5795\/6174\/files\/9780702345692.jpg?v=1768995656","url":"https:\/\/thebookmongerbearsden.co.uk\/products\/9780702345692","provider":"The Bookmonger","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
