Mister Magnolia Award-winning author/illustrator

A heartwarming classic by Quentin Blake. Full of lovely pictures, lovely rhymes and all-round loveliness, this book proves that Quentin Blake is a master of the pen as well as the paintbrush. Mr Magnolia has only one boot. He has an old trumpet that goes rooty-toot, and two lovely sisters who play on the flute. He has a happy, merry life. There’s just one thing missing: a second boot. If only he could splash in the puddles like everyone else! But then Mr Magnolia is sent a mysterious parcel…
