Look Out Jack! The Giant is Back!

Look Out Jack! The Giant is Back! by Tom Birdseye is a funny picture book that is a take off of the original Jack and the Beanstalk story. The Birdseye version has something that the original doesn't. The humor really engages the reader and the characters are very well developed and have personality that is very clear to the reader. There is repetition in the story that is very fun and entertaining. The use of dialog is also great. In addition to being a well written story the illustrations improve the book even further. They are very bright and detailed that show the action that is taking place in the text. I really enjoyed this version of the Jack and the Beanstalk story, and I would definitely recommend it for children.
