Diana and her Rhinoceros
By Edward Ardizzone
A classic story of a very special friendship, by the much-loved author/illustrator Edward Ardizzone.
Diana Effingham-Jones is a sensible child. So she does not panic when an escaped rhinoceros with a horrid cold walks into her sitting-room one winter evening. Instead she gives him a rhinoceros-sized serving of Influenza Mixture, cough cure and aspirins, and plenty of hot buttered toast.
- Humorous depictions of a very English way of life.
- Edward Ardizzone’s "Tim Alone" was voted one of the top ten Kate Greenaway medal-winners ever.
- "A delightful book which will be enjoyed as much by adults as by their children." Times Educational Supplement.
