From Paul Kidby's website.

[Who's Wee Dug]

I prefer that cover to the original.

 

[author3]

I find Maurice's look as too much "staring", but apart from that, it's a good cover.
The boy looks too much ... "unsteady", so to say, to me, however.

 

[Who's Wee Dug]

But I not going to buy it again just for the cover.

 

[Alrik Fassbauer]

[Tonyblack]

I'm really not very keen on this new cover. I much prefered the old one.

They have sorted that out, now.

The amazing Chris and his educated rodents.

The cover looks to me as if Maurice had "educated" his humans, too ...

... Which might not even be too far away from the truth ...

Isn't that what all cats do? Or at least, train us.

Ugh...... I am >.< Although I already have the original in HB *hides*
But I wonder why the rat jaws are more like lion's jaw - it's not rattie jaws. (yes, I was also wondering why Ratatouille had given the rats those huge potatos for noses ... )

Because they *are* magically ... distorted ... lions ? Remember on the Heap, there were lots of things ...
