Rating: 5 out of 5

I ordered this book to read with my five year old granddaughter. We like to check out books together on my Kindle, and she was attracted to the subject matter and the colorful cover illustration. As a recently retired elementary teacher of 31 years, I am pleased with the quality of this book. The story and pictures kept my granddaughter's attention throughout, and I enjoyed reading the rhyming structure of the text. Our favorite part of the story was when Jack, the youngest brother, triumphs over his two older brothers by catching a whole line of fish on his pole at the same time. The story ends on a positive note and encourages children to never give up. I would recommend this picture book as a great read aloud, and as a book to encourage independent reading.
