Jack, the King of Ashes
Book (italiano):
<body><p>Award-winning storyteller Andy Jones and illustrator Darka Erdelji are back, with <em>Jack, the King of Ashes</em> another riotously funny Jack tale. This time Jack spends all his time hove off in the coal box. Then one day he shakes off those ashes and sets out on an adventure that includes sneaky robbers, a famous missing princess with reward attached, an always-surprising canine sidekick, a royal wedding, a lovelorn rooster-puppet, a conniving ships captain, corpses, curses, kisses, coats and a whole lot more! Steeped in Newfoundland folk tradition, <em>Jack, the King of Ashes</em> shows CODCO alumnus Andy Jones at the top of his form. His quirky and delightful humour is unstoppable. Darka Erdeljis illustrations offer a wonderful, witty counterpoint to the story, enriching and embellishing it. Jones and Erdeljis last collaboration, <em>Jack and Mary in the Land of Thieves</em> won the 2012 BMO Winterset Award honouring excellence in Newfoundland and Labrador literature in any genre. </p><p> </p></body></html>
