When the young Prince of Zapada is imprisoned by rebels, he needs all the help he can get to escape. As he flees his prison dressed in his red pyjamas, his captives are hot on his heels. The whole land of Zapada has joined forces to help him, each person dressing in red to confound and confuse his enemies.
An exciting tale of adventure and escape from the illustrator of The Wall.
I think this book is just gorgeous and I love the way that Tom plays with the light and the dark to really make his illustrations. And it's got a particularly heart-warming ending...
