{"product_id":"9781841599557","title":"I Was a Rat! Or, The Scarlet Slippers and The Scarecrow and his Servant by Philip Pullman","description":"‘I was a rat!’ So insists a scruffy boy named Roger. Maybe it’s true, but what is he now? A terrifying monster running wild in the sewers? The Daily Scourge is sure of it. A victim of ‘Rodent Delusion’? The hospital nurse says yes. A lucrative fairground attraction? He is to Mr. Tapscrew. Or is Roger just an ordinary little boy? Only three people believe this version of the story, and it may take a royal intervention–and a bit of magic–to convince everyoneelse. A playful parody of the press, I Was a Rat! is a magical weaving of humour, fairy tale, and adventure.\u003cp\u003eWhen, in A Scarecrow and His Servant, a bolt of lightning brings Scarecrow to life, he proves to be a courteous but pea-brained fellow with grand ideas. He meets a boy, Jack, who becomes his faithful servant and the two embark upon a terrifying series of adventures–including battles, brigands, broken hearts, and treasure islands. But little does the Scarecrow know that he is being followed by a family who desperately wishes he’d never sprung to life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTwo stories of myth, magic and adventure from the master teller of tales.\u003c\/p\u003e,\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Binding: Hardback,\u003cbr\u003ePagination: 384 pages","brand":"Everyman","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47076339056867,"sku":"9781841599557","price":15.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1701\/6275\/files\/9781841599557.jpg?v=1756475472","url":"https:\/\/www.harbourbookshop.co.uk\/products\/9781841599557","provider":"The Harbour Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
