The Coming of the Iron Man New Award-winning author by Ted Hughes (author)

This gorgeous abridged edition brings The Iron Man to a picture book audience for the very first time! A landmark publication.

The Iron Man isn’t scary – he’s just very, very hungry . . .

It’s not until he starts chomping on fence posts and tractors that he comes to the attention of the angry farmers – who trap him in a hole with the help of a little boy called Hogarth.

Then Hogarth comes up with a new plan – it turns out that the scrap yard, with its metal bedsteads, broken down cars and old cookers is the perfect home for a hungry Iron Man.
