When Jack, the hero of Jack and the Dreamsack by Laurence Anholt and Ross Collins (Bloomsbury Publishing, 4.99) goes to sleep, he has wonderful dreams, so he decides to save them in a sack to enjoy when he is awake as well. Help children to follow Jack on his magical journey through fantasy landscapes, and extend their learning by linking the story to exciting play opportunities across the curriculum.
The journey starts
As you enter Jack's dreamworld, stimulate the children's imaginations by encouraging them to express their own fantasies.
