Summary
Jack and the Giant Barbecue
Jack's late daddy once made the best barbecue in West Texas, until a giant stole his recipe book. Jack is determined to find that greedy old giant and get those recipes back! With a little bit of strength, the help of an unlikely jukebox, and a whole lot of luck, Jack outwits the giant and opens his own barbecue shack. John Manders's hilarious gouache paintings, accented with colored pencils and highlights, bring Eric Kimmel's version of Jack and the Beanstalk to uproarious life.
