Jack and the Seven Deadly Giants

(2) 4-6 Illustrated by Carll Cneut. Unwanted "bad" boy Jack dupes seven giants into vanquishing themselves. The giants get what they deserve, and Jack does, too--a happily-ever-after that shows he's not such a "bad" boy after all. Tried-and-true ingredients combine in unexpected ways to give this episodic yarn the spontaneous feel of a bedtime story, spun out over a week of nights.
