Lazy Jack

Vivian French (1995), 31 pages
Illustrated by Russell Ayto
Audience: Preschool - 2nd Grade
All Lazy Jack wants to do is sleep, sleep, sleep! Mom says, 'This won't do,' and sends Jack out to work for the builder, the farmer, the dairyman, the baker, the fishmonger, and the grocer. Read this French folktale, 'Lazy Jack' by Vivian French to see the hilarious things Jack does with his payments of fish, cheese, milk, and many more. The young reader will delight in the zany illustrations created by Russell Ayto depicting life in a typical French village. You'll need to decide for yourself if Jack is truly lazy or in fact, a very clever boy!
