Jack, the Giant Killer book. Charles de Lint's books are very meaningful to me and, in many ways, have been life-changing, but apart from The Cats of Tanglewood last year (which I didn't like much and was disappointed with and scared it meant the end of my love affair with his books) I hadn't read him in a few years.
