Book Synopsis

In this imaginative interpretation of the nursery rhyme The House That Jack Built, young Jack builds an amazing fort in the middle of the living room, using the chairs, blankets, and other objects on hand.

Unfortunately, those objects belong to his family members, so when they want their things backthere goes the walls and roof! Jack struggles to keep his fortress going as it crumbles piece by piece. Finally, Grandma saves the day with her quilts for a sweet, satisfying ending filled with family fun.

Boni Ashburn's text is brought to life by acclaimed illustrator Brett Helquist, whose lively style takes this tale beyond the living room and into the world of adventure.
