"[A] playful take on a classic story" --Booklist Perfect for fans of Narwhal and Jelly, this hilarious take on classic fairy tales tackles the family chaos of bedtime. Did you know that Jack was looking for hot dogs when he climbed up the beanstalk? Or that he was led there by a talking fox named Wendy?

A hilarious modern retelling of Jack and the Beanstalk, Daddy and the Beanstalk is a recipe for fun and adventure--with a hint of magic.

Praise for this book
"Elementary-schoolers who can't get enough early reader comics, especially those who like fantasy adventures, will get lots of enjoyment out of Weiner's playful take on a classic story."--Booklist
"Laughs abound in this fractured fairy tale embedded in a bedtime story."--School Library Journal
"Crandall's bubbly illustrations serve the plot well, shining in sequences where a comparatively tiny Andy navigates the giant child's home...A cheerful, slightly snarky riff on a familiar fable."--Kirkus Review
