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\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56943140962678,"sku":"9780702345692","price":6.11,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/stand_39353119.jpg?v=1767826782","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9780702345692-nice-work-for-the-cat-the-king","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
