OF COURSE you think I was the bad guy, terrifying poor little Jack. You don't know the other side of the story. Well, let me tell you... This fractured fairy tale provides a fresh perspective on a well-known tale.
Glib, colloquial texts and bright, cartoon-style illustrations create an ironic, knowing atmosphere. . . .an amusing trick, and makes a good teaching tool...-- "School Library Journal"
