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 THE SECOND BOOK, 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","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":50593362870545,"sku":"NGR9780702339738","price":14.09,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50814355702033,"sku":"GOR014083326","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52411233468689,"sku":"GOR014518411","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52663836868881,"sku":"NLS9780702339738","price":13.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0702339733.jpg?v=1751262706","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/products\/cat-and-the-king-ne-book-nick-sharratt-9780702339738","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
