    This tom thumb was born unto a poor farmer and his wife. I think this disadvantage give more merit to his rise to greatness. All of the basic obstacles are the same.

    Watson, Richard Jesse Watson. Tom Thumb.San Diego: Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, Publishers, 1989. The illustrations are realistic and very well done. The text is long and may discourage young readers. The main character Tom Thumb is swallowed by a giant and a fish but escapes. He shows that even though he is small he is brave. He helps the King Arthur stop the giant from attacking. A very enchanting story that will engage readers. Age Group: 7-10 years old.

    Richard Jesse Watson has retold this Brothers Grimm classic tale of a boy who is the size of his father's thumb. He unintentionally gets into dangerous situations just because of his small size. In his quest to be helpful to his parents and ease their worry over him, he ends up in some wild situations and places, such as the belly of a fish. He redeems himself by helping King Arthur and with the award he receives he goes back home to his parents.This story isn't my favorite of the Brothers Grimm fairy tales. The illustrations are beautiful and make the story more interesting to read.
