Join George on a new rhyming adventure in the latest title in the bestselling picture book series, from award-winning authors, Adam and Charlotte Guillain.

A boy called George had a breathtaking thought,

that giants might really exist …

When George plants a jellybean in his garden it grows into an enormous beanstalk and George is sure there must be a friendly giant at the top. As he climbs bravely up the beanstalk, higher and higher, George encounters a magical pixie, a stinky troll and gets stuck in a very sticky web … Combining a classic fairytale story with fun rhyming text and silly humour, Jellybeans for Giants is the perfect picture book fun for children aged 3 years and up. All of George’s adventures are available to collect with brilliant new bright covers. Find more treats and daring feats in: Spaghetti with the Yeti Marshmallows for Martians

Doughnuts for a Dragon
Pizza for Pirates
Socks for Santa
Treats for a T. rex
Muffins for Mummies

If it was the fiction, I like the character George because he got the creative idea. And if it was real, I like the fact that George and his dog found Jellybeans in little places. I would recommend this book to someone so that they could come up with creative idea like how George came up with Creative idea in the story.

A good twist on the idea of jack and the beanstalk but this is George.
