Review
Maddern's unsettling retelling of this traditional tale is complemented by Paul Hess's memorable illustrations (Observer )
A thought-provoking story, lightly told and with striking illustrations by Paul Hess (Guardian )
Product Description
When Jack meets Old Man Death coming towards his cottage, he realises at once what's up. "You're not taking my old mother!" he cries, and hits out at Death with his fists. With each punch, Death gets smaller and smaller, until Jack is able to squeeze him inside a hazelnut shell. He throws the nut far out to sea, and goes home, but he will soon learn that death is an essential part of life.
