Description Share Post Nice Work for the Cat and the King Nick Sharratt (Scholastic) The Cat and the King have settled into life at 37 Castle Close. They like their neighbourhood, journeys aboard the number 23 bus and cakes. Yet the royal money box is running empty. It is time to earn some cash. What is the best job for a former king who is very good at waving and making announcements? What might provide Nice Work for the Cat and the King? It seems that the cat’s full of ideas, although aware of the king’s special skills. It seems that being a lollipop ‘lady’ might be an option. After all, doesn’t that require waving? Then again, what about within a haberdashery department? Doesn’t that utilise the king’s superior ribbon cutting skill? What’s more, he’s a natural with the public, isn’t he? We know that Nick Sharratt is a skilful, appealing illustrator. However, here, with this superb duet of titles, we realise his further abilities. In fact, Bookwagon would love a further visit to 37 Castle Close, if the king’s and cat’s fortunes might enable them to purchase some custard creams, perhaps? We recommend this title highly to all readers. It is an enjoyable experience particularly for newer chapter book readers.
