MIROSLAV SASEK'S 'Mike and the Modelmakers'





Miroslav Sasek is widely known for writing and illustrating the 'This is ...' series which follow his travels to many cities across the globe. 'Mike and the Modelmakers' is one of Saseks lesser known books; published in 1970 and printed in England.
The story follows the character Mike, who comes to England on a trip from America with his father to visit the 'MATCHBOX' factory in Hackney E9 [where they made model toy cars].

Its an absolutely charming little book!
