Publisher's Description of Jack: (Fairly)True Tale of Jack and the Beanstalk

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.

Category Description for Fairly True Tails

This collection of books from New York Times bestseller Liesl Shurtliff take slight twists and modifications on the original tales of several notorious childhood stories.  Rump, Jack, Grump, Red, and several others tell the story in a witty and expanded fashion. Also known as Rumpelstiltskin, Jack and the Beanstalk, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Red Riding Hood, Rump, Jack, Grump, and Red are laced with magical, and make-believe events, characters, curses, giants, and the like. Parents should be aware of the content containing these secular traits as well as themes of good and evil. The books are very engaging and humorous. Use these as library builders. ~Judy
