The modern retelling of this fairy tale
will captivate young readers because it is
told through the eyes of a young boy. The
illustrations enrich the story and help the
reader to understand two ways of interpreting
a story: that of the storyteller and that of the
listener. Jorge’s imagination transforms this
tale into a very different and funny story.
