This is an amazing book! With wonderful pictures it makes the story come to life! I can't wait for the sequel. This author is a miracle! I would recommend any books written by her!
An exciting and carefree trip into the depths of imagination!

I was so delighted by the carefree view in "When the Giants Come to Play", I purchased 14 copies to give as Holiday Gifts! Reading the book, my imagination took me back to sunny warm days from my childhood with gentle breezes...laughter running rampid until my tummy hurt from laughing... and adventure that almost never ends. The book felt very safe, warm, and relaxing (just like a summer nap in a a hammock under a fuzzy blanket). The illustrations made the giants so real, friendly, and fun! I would recommend this book from Author, Andrea Beaty and Illustrator, Kevin Hawkes to any little/big people who love a feel good book with a twist of adventure! Am looking forward to this Author's next adventure!
This book will become a classic for children!

I love this author! The story of Anna's adventures with the giants are brought to life with Kevin Hawkes illustrations. We've worn out our first copy already, it's a picture book that brings out the imagination and lights up the kids.
A delight for both kids and adults

The whimsy and playfulness of Andrea Beaty's text combined with Kevin Hawkes' always amazing illustrations make this a picture book that readers of all ages will enjoy. My 5-year-old son and I both love this perfect read-aloud book.
