The Spiffiest Giant in Town

My son (2 year old) loves this book as well as all of the other books by this author, we have several.

Cute book about caring for others.

My daughter loves it & I love it. Got it at first from the library & my little one was sad to give it back. So,we bought it :) ....A wonderful storry about at first to fit in and to change,but then to help others in need and to realize that if you care and love others,then you will win rwal friends,loving you like you are!

Me encanta esta autora, un cuento más para mí colección

The Spiffiest Giant in Town is fun for both reading aloud and reading alone. The illustrations serve to promote the story's plot and message, both of which are consistent Christian message. It's worth the price.

Great

My kids love Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler. Like, everything they do, my kids can't get enough of. They love the short little movies of their work, they love the illustration style and all the silly little elements Mr. Scheffler sneaks in. They love the story lines, the rhythm. And this book they maybe like most of all. Maybe it's because I made up a tune to sing when the giant is singing his little song? But regardless, this book is a hit at our house. I like it, because I feel like it aides me in teaching them the importance of sharing and generosity, as well as the idea that material items aren't the most important things in life. It's a lofty concept for toddlers. But it's a good launching point.

This was and still is one of our family's favorite books of all time. It is a sweet story of being kind and selfless to strangers. Sometimes you can give everything, even the clothes off of your back to others who need it more than you do. However, it also addresses how one must be appreciative and grateful to that person who made the kind gesture and how that makes the giver feel. My kids are now 12 (son) and 14 (daughter) and are supposedly "too cool", but they still humor me when I ask them if they'd like to read "baby books" when they know I just want to snuggle. This is always one of the books they choose :)

Une super belle histoire, un trait d’humour et de belles illustrations, ma fille a adoré l’histoire ! Même à 2 ans, elle a écouté attentivement grâce au jeu de répétition dans les pages ! Top !

One of our favourite Julia Donaldson books with a great message of kindness and character!

Encantados con la compra! Ya tenemos más de 10 títulos de esta colección (nos enganchamos con el Gruffalo y desde entonces no hemos parado de comprar títulos de esta autora). Sus bonitas ilustraciones y sus textos fáciles de digerir incluso para niños no bilingües lo hacen un must-have en la estantería de nuestros hijos. El precio también es muy asequible para tratarse de libros en inglés y son títulos que difícilmente encontraríamos en nuestra librería habitual. En cuanto al vocabulario son textos muy repetitivos y con rimas que ayudan a los niños a asimilar fácilmente el contenido gramático. En este caso la historia trata de un gigante bueno que decide cambiar de look. De camino a casa ayuda a los animales cediéndoles su ropa nueva para diferentes propósitos. Una historia con moraleja que inculca valores positivos a nuestros hijos.

Hermoso, le gustó mucho leerlo a mi niña.

My 2 and 5 y.o are constantly reading this book over and over again.
