Jack [electronic resource] : The true story of jack and the beanstalk. Liesl Shurtliff.

Shurtliff, Liesl. (Author). Mann, Bruce. (Added Author).

Summary:

Fairy tale fans will give a GIANT cheer for this funny retelling of Jack and the Beanstalk from the  New York Times Bestselling author of Rump and Red ! All his life, Jack has longed for an adventure, so when giants turn up in the neighbor's cabbage patch, he is thrilled! Soon Jack is chasing them to a land beyond the clouds, with his little sister, Annabella, in tow. The kingdom of giants is full of super-sized fun: puddings to swim in, spoons to use as catapults, monster toads to carry off pesky little sisters. . . .       But Jack and Annabella are on a mission. The king of the giants has taken something that belongs to them, and they’ll do anything—even dive into a smelly tureen of green bean soup—to get it back. “Liesl Shurtliff has the uncanny ability to make magical worlds feel utterly real, and the best part is: you don’t even need a beanstalk to visit them .” —Tim Federle, author of Better Nate than Ever "A delightful story of family, perseverance, and courage. " —Booklist
