JACK AND NANCY

A beautiful new reissue of one of Quentin Blake’s earliest picture books.

This was Quentin Blake’s second ever picture book – gloriously reissued and brought back into print to celebrate Quentin Blake’s 80th birthday in autumn 2012. Quentin sales for Random House Children’s Books total at over 4 million copies and he is truly a national treasure. This wonderful story set against stunning illustrations is a real treat for fans.

 Jack and Nancy always wanted to go on an adventure but then they unexpectedly get blown away to one! Jack and Nancy love to hear the sailors tell of adventures far away. But one day, they are walking on the cliffs and it starts to rain, so Jack puts up his umbrella. But the wind picks up and WHOOOOSH they are blown away to an exotic island! They explore for a bit, and even meet a parrot, but there are no sign of any ships to get them home. How will they get back?
