"When I was a kid, my best friend was Josh Funk. Now he's becoming a
friend to a whole new generation." --B.J. Novak, author of the #1 New
York Times bestseller The Book with No Pictures
Jack is not fond of the bossy narrator of his fairy tale! When Jack is
told to trade his beloved cow Bessie for some magic beans, throw the
beans out the window, climb the ENORMOUS beanstalk that sprouts
overnight, and steal from a GIANT, he decides this fairy tale is getting
out of control. In fact, he doesn't want to follow the story line at
all. Who says Jack needs to enter a life of daring, thievery, and giant
trickery? He takes his story into his own hands--and you'll never guess
what happens next!
With laugh-out-loud dialogue and bold, playful art (including hidden
fairy tale creatures for kids to find), this Jack and the Beanstalk
retelling will have children rolling with laughter till Bessie the cow
comes home.
