Reviews

This book is FANTASTIC for storytime with a group of children. It's great to read it with inflection, pretending to be scared of the giant and telling the kids to SHHH! - Goodreads reviewerI have worked in a pre-School for 24 years and this is by far their favourite book. The children sit there quietly and as you read the book they are hooked! - Amazon reviewer
