This well known fairy tale is delightfully illustrated and written in simple terms and phrases, by Hy Murdock, to entertain all young readers and listeners. I am sure you do not need me to summarise the story of Jack and the Beanstalk because it is probably known by everyone reading this. It is part of a lovely series of fairytales and each book in it has been published by Ladybird. I would definitely rate this book 7/ 10 although it is not at all very suitable for me; it is better for younger children, like my little brother, who are aged between 4 and 7 years and they are who I would recommend it to.
