By: Nick Sharratt | Illustrator:  Nick Sharratt

 

This wonderfully funny follow-up to Nick Sharratt's acclaimed début 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
  • Beautiful gold foil cover

 

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

Very Nice Athletic Socks - Fit as expected.
Size: X-Large, Color: Black/Graphite (6-pairs)
So far so good. I purchased the XL size and they fit well for my size 14 feet. They seem to have held up well in the 7 days I have been wearing them - 2 washes so far. Only time will tell if they last. I do know if you walk around the house in your socks they will develop holes on the bottom much faster than if you just wear them in shoes.

Favorite socks
Size: X-Large, Color: Black/Graphite (6-pairs)
Great quality, very comfortable and soft. Have a decent thickness to them without making your feet hot and aren't too tight around the ankles

comfy as heck
Size: X-Large, Color: Black/Graphite (6-pairs)
the only real issue i have with these is if you use them for more active things they wear out kind of quickly

Some of the best socks I’ve ever worn
Size: X-Large, Color: Black/Graphite (6-pairs)
Some of the best socks I’ve ever worn. I am a size 13 and it’s hard to find good fitting socks (especially in no show) and these fit perfectly. They are also incredibly soft, probably some of the softest I own. I will continue to buy this brand for as long as they are around
