Illustrated in full color. Little Critter appears as Jack in this simple retelling of the story of the boy who swaps his cow for a bag of magic beans.

“Fee, fi, apple fritter, I smell a little critter!” Jack and the Beanstalk has been told and retold many times over the centuries. But Mercer Mayer’s great wit, animated illustrations, and cleverly created flaps–lift them to see the magic beans in the bag and the giant beanstalk outside Jack’s window–enliven this beloved tale as never before.
