A stunning new edition of a modern classic in the bestselling Large Family series.
"If you are not familiar with these stories, you really have not lived ... you just couldn't get better" Guardian
A hilarious tale of family life and the difficulties of dieting, this is a beautiful new edition of a modern classic in the Large Family series. Mrs Large the elephant is feeling a bit wibbly-wobbly – so decides the whole family need to shape up! Biscuits and crisps are out, veggies and jogs are in! But, when you're a hungry elephant ... healthy eating and exercise is no piece of cake! With a foreword and gorgeous foil lettering on the cover and spine, this is a beautiful book to treasure.
Jill Murphy (1949–2021) was one of Britain’s most treasured author–illustrators. She wrote and illustrated her first book, the bestselling The Worst Witch, while still only eighteen, and went on to create the award-winning Large Family series, which has sold over ten million copies worldwide and been adapted for television. Jill’s other characters include a small monster called Marlon who stars in the acclaimed The Last Noo-Noo and All for One, and Ruby the bunny, who stars in Meltdown!
