Award-winning illustrator Mini Grey turns her inimitable hand to Hilaire Belloc’s classic cautionary tale of Jim: who ran away from his Nurse and was eaten by a Lion!First published in 1907, Belloc’s wickedly funny poem describing the sad end of Jim is fabulously illustrated in a magical picture book edition. This is darkly comic, word of warning about the dangers of being spoiled is the perfect tongue-in-cheek corrective for little ones who have been a little overindulged!
