A hungry giant meets a boy called Jack...
Elli Woollard is an exciting new talent on the picture books scene,
who started writing stories after an embarrassing incident in which
her youngest son broke Michael Rosen's glasses. In addition to
picture books, she also writes children's poems. Her snappy rhymes,
catchy rhythms and witty stories are sure to make her a huge
success. The Giant of Jum is her first book for Macmillan. Elli
lives in London with her four children, her husband and two guinea
pigs.

a read-aloud gem

The illustrations brim with jokes and delightful details, the
rhyming text is breezy fun, and the line
between darkly gruesome and good-hearted is deftly maintained.
