For centuries, children have delighted in the story of ?The House That Jack Built,” with its charming cast of humans (farmer, priest, maiden) and animals (dog, cat, rat, cow) and dizzying comical interactions. Author and illustrator Jenny Stow, who has lived in Antigua, brings a fresh take to the timeless tale of "the dog that worried the cat" and "the rat that ate the malt" in Jack's house. Employing a striking paint, ink, and crayon collage technique using sponges and rollers, Stow renders the lush vegetation, bright colors, and blazing skies of the Caribbean as the perfect setting for this irresistible rhyme.
