This delightful sequel to Nick Sharratt's acclaimed debut novel, "The Cat and the King," is a delightful feast of humor and magnificent artwork. Alas and alack! The Royal Money Box is nearly empty. The king must find employment, but what kind of job would be suitable for a king? Butcher? Baker? Candlestick Maker? It takes many comical disasters, and a surprisingly helpful visit from a dragon, before both the cat and the king find their perfect jobs. Spectacular two-color 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 humor. 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 recognizable illustration is such a favorite 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 humor and a great, well-written concept. - BookTrust"
