by Axel Scheffler (Illustrator), Julia Donaldson (Author)
A new, limited edition of the modern classic The Smartest Giant in Town.
George wished he wasn't the scruffiest giant in town. So when he sees a new shop selling giant-sized clothes, he decides it's time for a new look: smart trousers, smart shirt, stripy tie, shiny shoes. Now he's the smartest giant in town... until he bumps into some animals who desperately need his help - and his clothes! Join George on his journey in this special anniversary edition.
Children will love this funny and big-hearted tale from the unparalleled picture-book partnership of Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler, creators of The Gruffalo. The Smartest Giant in Town 15th Anniversary Edition comes complete with early never-before-seen drawings from Axel's sketchbook, a letter from Julia detailing where George the Giant and his story came from, and a shiny foiled cover. An absolute must for all The Smartest Giant in Town fans!
