Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
George wished he wasn't the scruffiest giant in town. So when he sees a new shop selling giant-sized clothes, he decides it's time for a new look: smart trousers, smart shirt, stripy tie, shiny shoes. Now he's the smartest giant in town . . . until he bumps into some animals who desperately need his help - and his clothes!

3 out of 5 stars Not my favorite   November 4, 2008
I really, really love this team of author and illustrator but unfortunately I didn't love this book. I have almost all of the books that Julia Donaldson/Axel Scheffler have written and this one is my least favorite. It's a cute enough book and story and the illustrations are nice, but it doesn't compare to their others. I think she has a great rhyming ability and all of her books are great read-alouds because of it, but this one only rhymes in certain places which makes it a little awkward to read.

Storyhours. Class visits, a bit longer than other pix books, so you have to have an audience that will pay attention. One of my favorites.
