Fair’s Fair 

Jackson is cold and starving in the dreadful winter weather. He’s looking forward to the steaming pie that is payment for a long night’s work. When the huge black dog comes – growling and glaring – Jackson gives it half his meal. One bargain soon leads to another – and to some unexpected rewards . . . With an engaging (and very creepy) story, illustrated in colour and black and white on every double page spread, this story is ideal for newly confident readers.
