Synopsis

This is a book that could be paired with Jack and the Beanstalk stories. John and his mother are poor giants and he goes out in search of a job to earn money so that they can eat. He encounters a king, queen and their castle, and does monumental tasks that his size allows him to do. In the end he returns to his mother and they eat well.
