Come with Jack on a quest for the perfect lunch - you never know who you might meet!

Jack doesn't want to eat his boring old lunch. He'd rather have lunch on a pirate ship! But what do pirates actually eat?? Rotten fish stew - eeuuuwwww! And so begins a rollicking, imaginative adventure over sea, through caves and into the lair of a troll before Jack decides that actually Mum's cooking is pretty good after all.
