The Giant of Jum

32 pp. | Holt | July, 2017 | Trade ISBN 978-1-62779-515-9 $17.99
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Benji Davies. Wide-eyed animals hide as a giant goes stomping "through fields and forest" searching for children (specifically a boy named Jack) to eat. But the children are not afraid and, after the giant helps them three times, they provide him with something much better: cake. The humorous, colorful illustrations and the rollicking rhyming text make this a perfect choice for reading aloud.
