Meg's Eggs (Meg and Mog)

Product Information

It also stimulated a discussion about dinosaurs, what they eat, what their teeth look like and the difference between herbivores and carnivores. Reading Meg’s Eggs has led to discussions about eggs hatching and discovering which animals and birds come out of eggs.

Published in 1968, A Necklace of Raindrops was the first of several wonderful collaborations between Jan and Joan Aiken - and it was also the very first book Jan illustrated. After creating his first book at the age of eight, Jan went on to excel in his chosen field of design, working in such diverse areas as television, theatre and greetings cards.Luckily Meg’s spell to save them works fairly well but the dinosaurs are so small that she needs a magnifying glass to see them! No missing or damaged pages, no creases or tears, no underlining or highlighting of text, and no writing in the margins. Meg’s spell to save them from being eaten by the Tyrannosaurus causes all three dinosaurs to shrink.

Suitable for sharing or reading alone, this book features "Meg's Veg", "Mog at the Zoo" and "Meg up the Creek". My daughter laughs when Meg’s spells go wrong, first the eggs are too big then the dinosaurs shrink to mouse size. We recently inherited some of the books and now my daughter is enjoying them, she loves Meg’s spells as they never work quite as they should! The cover may have some limited signs of wear but the pages are clean, intact and the spine remains undamaged. Meg and Mog are the heroes of a series of children"s books written by Helen Nicoll and illustrated by Jan Pienkowski.Meg’s spells continue to surprise her and the eggs she makes for supper are even more strange than usual.
