About this deal

There are surprises galore for Meg, Mog and Owl in these three classic Meg and Mog stories: Meg's Eggs, Meg at Sea and Mog in the Fog. For children who enjoy this story there are many more amusing and appealing Meg and Mog adventures to discover. But they cut out before the really juicy scene where Mog catches one of the mice, plays with it, teases it, slices it open, hooks out the purple wibbly organs with one claw, and eats the rest whole. I don't know, all told, that Meg and Mog ranks that highly in my estimation, as a witchy story (witchy picture-books are a pet project of mine) per se, but as a very effective beginning reader, one that happens to make use of witchy themes, I can see why it has been so popular, and why it has remained in print, over in the UK. I had absolutely no memory of the finish and hitting it as an adult, I flipped over the final page looking for the rest of the story.
