A classic, exuberant, rhyming picture book from the much-loved Quentin Blake.
Mr Magnolia has only one boot.
He has an old trumpet that goes rooty-toot -
And two lovely sisters who play on the flute -
But Mr Magnolia has only one boot.
In this wittily rhyming picture book, Mr Magnolia has a full and happy life except for one serious omission - a boot. But one day, he receives a mysterious parcel, and at last Mr Magnolia can splash in the puddles with everyone else!

I only wish I'd had this book as a child. It's wonderful in an innocent kind of way and the cd is so catchy you'll be singing it all the time. My 2 year old loves it!
Bizarre story, lovely illustrations, an eccentric success.
