It’s a little crazy but do you know how hard it is to find a decent edition of Jack and the Beanstalk these days? The Galdone version is, I’m sorry, really weird and the E. Nesbit too long. Honestly, one of the best versions I’ve run across is Josh Funk’s It’s Not Jack and the Beanstalk which my son really adores. It’s not just the fact that the book breaks down the fourth wall (though that doesn’t hurt). It’s the beauty that comes when any fairytale character points out the innately ridiculo...
