The Coming of the Iron Man (Paperback)
Hughes, Ted (Author)
Available for Order
£7.99
The Iron Man isn't scary - he's just very, very hungry! This edition brings The Iron Man to a picture book audience for the very first time! It's not until he starts chomping on fence posts and tractors that he comes to the attention of the angry farmers - who trap him in a hole with the help of a little boy called Hogarth. He resurfaces again, upturning picnickers. So Hogarth comes up with a plan - it turns out that the scrap yard, with its metal bedsteads, broken down cars and old cookers is the perfect home.
