It is a tale of a boy who climbed to the top of a magic beanstalk to escape from a giant. This can be used for many occasions in the classroom, one being that children create their own version of the story. It can direct great discussions as well revolving around the theme of being able to know what is right and what is wrong. This is a retelling of the classic Jack and the Beanstalk. This colorful rendition will take children on a journey alongside Jack as he finds himself in a magical world filled with a golden-egg laying goose, a magic harp, and a fearsome giant. This book was a refreshing take on an old classic. I would use this book as an anytime book. I think that it would especially be good to read just before nap time. Also, when in our plant module, we could read this story and then plant our own "magical beans." no reviews | add a review
