Review: Engaging new version of a classic!

This is a fun variation of the story we grew up with. Jack is very resourceful in the ways he finds to do away with the giants in the story. And of course it wouldn't be a fairy tale if he didn't win the lovely daughter of the king at the end. Kids will love this, and they will also learn a lot. Vocabulary is highlighted throughout the story, and a glossary is provided at the end. Not only is the story engaging, but it is educational too. Too many children nowadays are entering school without an exposure to nursery rhymes and fairy tales. That's why a book like this is so needed!
