The entire town has heard stories about the "giant who likes to eat baby feet." Everyone is scared, except Claudette. Armed with her wooden sword, she is eager to travel to the hills and defeat the giant. She tricks two friends into joining her for this giant fighting expedition and together they face several adventures on their way to the giant.
The characters in this adventure graphic novel are full of energy and personality. As a result of their adventures, they become stronger friends and learn a little more about their individual strengths. I think these characters are a ton of fun. This book is a great tool to encourage reluctant readers. I highly recommend it.

One of the hits of my elementary school summer reading promotional visits this year. Also commonly one of the only books on my list the schools already owned.
Claudette's town has lived under the shadow of a potential giant invasion for her entire life. She is sick of the inaction of all the grown-ups. So she decides to destroy the giant herself!
Like the can-do attitude of our protagonist, and the unpredictable storyline. Fun and engaging illustrations in awesome full-color.
A super strong comic for kids.

You can absolutely tell the writer and artist have worked in TV and animation. I could see this easily becoming a TV series cartoon.

Nice and sweet graphic novel. The story is not super original but a fun read that is nicely drawn.

Bright, fun artwork, a cool story with lots of funny lines, and some kick-butt girls (and guys). Good for tweens who like Bone & other humorous adventures.

So funny! This was a great story. The drawings are cute and very expressive and the dialogue is really funny. Claudette wants to kill giants. Luckily her town used to be terrorized by a Baby Feet Eating Giant. Claudette is determined to take her little brother Gaston, who dreams of being a master sword maker and baker, and her friend Marie, who desires nothing more than being a princess, with her on her quest. They set off with a wooden sword and a ton of pots and pans for Gaston to make their cuisine (not chow). Hilarity ensues, naturally. The story is pretty sweet and seriously, the drawings alone sold me on this one.
