GIANT JACK
Birte Muller, , trans. by J. Alison James. . North-South, $15.95 (32pp) ISBN 978-0-7358-1620-6
Humorous hyperbole and credible affection infuse Müller's text and pictures and help deliver her worthwhile message clearly. Intentionally grainy, stylized pictures reveal just how different oversize, clumsy Jack is from his diminutive, graceful mice sisters. Flatfooted Jack in tutu and giant toe shoes trips over his long tail, while his siblings perform perfectly
