    The book of Job

    Thanks for the suggestions anne - is that because you think it says 'JOB' on the front?

    Having looked at it for a bit have been trying to work out significance of the leaves entwined around the book...

    I was actually wondering if the initials are 'S B' and could it be 'Sleeping Beauty' ? (although there aren't any thorns on the vines)

    Any more ideas folks?

    Fab! I didn't realise you could 'submit' a guess and it would say if it was correct or not before you completed the entry form. Perfect!

    Cheers anne :D

    ETA - I can't submit The Book of Job either!!

    Anne, that is a generic reply :) It doesn't mean it is right or wrong. For what it is worth, and trust me, I don't think it is worth anything, I guessed at Jack and the Beanstalk :) and got the same email as you. Just a guess, I could be miles and miles off

    ETA: Nope Jack & the Beanstalk is wrong :)
